Professor Cindy Cooper is Director of 91̽�� Clinical Trials Research Unit (CTRU) and Professor of Health Services Research and Clinical Trials.

After graduating in Pharmacology and Physiology from the University of Manchester and completing a PhD in neuropharmacology at the University of Nottingham, she worked at 91̽�� and West Yorkshire Health Authorities. She joined ScHARR in 1996 to establish the North Trent Research Office, to provide support to local NHS organisations to develop research strategy and increase their research income. She has been involved in health services research and clinical trials for over twenty five years and has held the position of Professor of Health Services Research and Clinical Trials since January 2014.

Cindy has previously held positions on NIHR funding bodies including being a member of the Programme Grant for Applied Research Committee and the COVID Call College of Experts as well as Chair of the Yorkshire and Humber Research for Patient Benefit Committee. Cindy is Chair of three NIHR funded Project Steering Committees and a member of the UKCRC Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) Executive Group. She has extensive experience of designing and implementing evaluations of complex health interventions in large multi-centre trials and other study designs. Since 2013 she has been PI or co-applicant on 15 NIHR Health Technology Assessment, Public Health Research, Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) Efficient Trials call and Programme Grant for Applied Research grants related to trials and trials methodology to a total research cost of £12 million. She has also held CTU support and infrastructure awards to total cost of approximately £1.1 million. Cindy has published over 100 peer-reviewed research papers. The CTRU currently has a portfolio of around 20 studies, the majority being clinical trials or studies of trial methodology.

Cindy is module coordinator for the ScHARR MSc module on clinical trials research methodology and has supervised six PhD students to successful completion, one of these was an NIHR Clinical Fellowship and one a Stroke Association Fellowship.

Teaching interests

I am co-ordinator for the Randomised Controlled Trials in Health and Social Care module of the MSc in Clinical Research.

I am interested in supervising research students in areas such as RCT methodology, evaluation of health technologies, particularly psychotherapeutic interventions and psychosocial aspects of chronic conditions.
