Research delivery at GOSH

In 24/25, there were 866 active research projects and 196 open clinical trials at GOSH with 3747 participants, across 41 research active clinical specialties. This included 89 phase 1 and 2 clinical trials of experimental medicines, and 9 world-first (first in man or child) treatments.

Our research and innovation spans everything from surgery and physiotherapy, dietetics and imaging, epilepsy, genomics and much more. Between 2017 and 2025, our research led to 18 new drug treatments for 16 rare childhood conditions, which transformed the lives of patients at GOSH and around the world.

Our research is delivered in-ward, with out-patients and within our specially built NIHR GOSH Clinical Research Facility.
