Collaborative

Overview

MedTechOne Collaborative is part of MedTechONE, which helps tackle challenges faced by those innovating in the MedTech space and supports MedTech entrepreneurs at Imperial College London.
The collaborative branch of MedTechONE specifically works with local and national networks of different clinical specialties. This includes coordinating national evaluations of our technologies in wider clinical trials, as well as accepting incoming devices into our medical technologies programme for support at all stages of translation, from first-in-human to early adoption.

IRAS Library

We've begun collating a library of free to access template IRAS forms that can help you prepare your application. You can download the blank template for your project, find out how to create a template of your own, if the one you need isn't stored here yet, and you can view some examples of completed forms donated by our researchers.

You can access the IRAS Library here!

If you'd like to send us a completed and approved IRAS form that we can use as an example, get in touch with us via the form linked at the bottom of this page.
