Extract
Professor Michael Peckham's appointment as Director of Research and Development for the National Health Service in England reflects a new phase in central government's concern to influence health care research. Responding to the House of Lords' 1988 report Priorities in Medical Research, and to continuing doubts about the effectiveness of the Department of Health's own research management division, Professor Peckham's remit is to control all the research and development activities funded through the NHS - estimated at over £200 million.
