The UK DCTN is co-ordinated from the Centre of Evidence Based Dermatology at the University of Nottingham. It is chaired by Professor Hywel Williams and managed by Dr Joanne Chalmers and Dr Carron Layfield.
The Network is led by an Executive Group of eight members and a Steering Group of 30 or so members, who advise on the suitability of trials being developed through the Network. The terms of reference for the Steering Group is set out here.
The Steering Group is supported by a Trial Generation and Prioritsation Panel. It is their role to identify and prioritise research ideas.
Individual trials are designed and implemented by specific design teams.
Regional co-ordinators have the task of raising awareness of the Network amongst local dermatologists and for identifying those who wish to participate in the trials that have been agreed by the group.
