The 17th UKCRF Network annual conference was hosted by Southampton Clinical Research Facility on 14 and 15 July 2022, with the theme 'Collaborating for Success' which highlights the importance of collaboration between the NHS/HSE, universities and our many partners. 

This could not be a better title for 2022 as over the last two years we have all worked collaboratively in order to achieve research success on urgent public health studies for COVID-19 vaccines and treatments, for the health of the nation.
