The partnership between Oxford University Hospitals and the University of Oxford has a joint governance structure which ensures the best possible use of shared resources and facilities, and operational management of clinical research activities. It includes a Strategic Partnership Board, which meets quarterly to identify joint strategic goals and support major partnership initiatives; and the BRC Steering Committee, which provides strategic oversight of the BRC and holds the Director and the Theme Leads to account.
