We are in the privileged position of being the key education provider for Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust and several key children's service providers in London and Essex. The Clinical Professor in Children and Young People's Cancer Care influences scholarly activity throughout the department as well as developing a community for clinical and educational research across the many clinical specialities in child health. This places the science of nursing and both the development and use of evidence to inform clincal care, at the heart of our teaching.
