Strategic decisions are made by a Research Executive, comprising Research Coordinator, Head of Division, research theme leads, Academic Clinical Training Programme Manager, Divisional Manager, South West London and St George’s mental health NHS Trust R&D director and Research Resource Unit (RRU) lead.
