Welcome to STAR

 

The Severn Trainee Anaesthetic Research (STAR) Group's aim is to expand and enhance the opportunities for engagement in high quality research and quality improvement projects for it members within the Severn Deanery.

 

We are affiliated with the Bristol School of Anaesthesia and Society of Anaesthetists of the South Western Region (SASWR), and are a registered company. Our official constitution is available for download.

Our aims are:

  1. To establish a trainee-led regional network of anaesthetic and intensive care medicine physicians who conduct high quality multi-centre research, audit and quality improvement projects.

  2. To provide a channel for communication and continuity that will allow trainees to continue their involvement in research and audit projects as they move around the region.

  3. To provide more research training for the educational benefit of its members.

  4. To improve the research experience for Severn trainees.

  5. To attract national funding for research and audit work.

  6. To collaborate with the Research and Audit Federation of Trainees (RAFT) on national projects, as part of the National Institute if Academic Anaesthesia (NIAA).

  7. To keep trainees up to date with the latest research developments from the international community.
