A key objective in the IPS research and development strategy is to increase research capability and capacity among the Society’s membership. This article summarises the recent work of the IPS Research and Development Group. On the fiftieth anniversary of the appointment of the first infection control nurse the IPS are launching annual research awards to encourage research active practitioners to build and improve their research skills and make a significant contribution to evidence based practice in the specialty.

Key Words: research • research priorities • research funding • practitioner led research.
