Genomics – Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust
The Leeds, Newcastle and Sheffield genetics laboratories work in a collaborative as the North East and Yorkshire Genomic Laboratory Hub (NEY GLH). Our NEY GLH sites are accredited as an STP training Consortium, however trainees will be employed by and based at their home Trust. Elements of training will be delivered across our sites and whilst much of this training has been successfully transferred to remote delivery it will be necessary for the trainee to spend time at our partner organisations during their period of training in order to receive a complete programme of education and development. This will be built into training plans which will be clearly developed and communicated with trainees and supported by the NEY GLH training group which is established across the hub. We have consolidated our wet laboratory testing activity into two of our sites (Leeds and Newcastle). Scientific analysis and reporting activity will continue in Sheffield, which is our main centre for specialised rare disease service delivery.
