SPPIRe
Scottish Practices and Professionals Involved in Research
National framework to streamline and facilitate processes for researchers wishing to recruit professionals or patients from primary care into research studies.

of projects and primary care professionals interested in participating in high
quality research studies.
Benefits of SPPIRe membership
