Collaborative GSK–University of Strathclyde doctoral research and training programmes: Transforming approaches to industry–academia engagement

Abstract

A global biopharma company, GSK, and the University of Strathclyde have developed an expansive and transformative research and training partnership originating in chemistry-aligned disciplines, with subsequent extensive expansion across further areas of the company. This has opened unique approaches for the delivery of collaborative research innovations while also enhancing the professional development and learning of GSK personnel, in addition to other embedded researchers and collaborating scientists, on a pathway towards more rapid and efficient discovery of new medicines.
