Clinical Board Support Team
 

We are fortunate to have an engaging and approachable Clinical Board Support Team (CBST) with both clinical and extensive research experience, who are well published and known for the work they undertake. The team are dedicated to collaborating with our communities to facilitate the development of new skills, including the assessment and communication of evidence.

 

They also empower our teams to do quality improvement and clinical research. Together with our species boards and Clinical Interest Groups (CIGs) they develop evidence-based resources to aid clinical decision-making and choice in practice.

The CBST is a group of veterinary researchers. Between us we have over 60 years' experience in small animal and mixed practice. We're here to help anyone within VetPartners who would like support with finding or evaluating evidence, or getting involved with clinical research.

 

We can provide services such as literature searches, study design, interpreting studies and applying for ethics and funding. If you'd like to progress your own skills in evidence-based medicine or clinical research, we have learning resources to help you and your teams feel more confident. Whether it's evaluating new products, setting up a journal club, carrying out QI or planning your own clinical research, the CBST are here to take you where you want to go.
