The Liminal Spaces Project is a five-year initiative that began in October 2014. This Wellcome Trust Senior Investigator Award in Medical Humanities led by Prof Graeme Laurie seeks to provide the first-ever integrated, interdisciplinary and cross- cutting analysis of health research regulation (HRR) as it impacts on, and often impedes, the Wellcome Trust vision of realising extraordinary improvements in human health. The research confronts the gaps between documented law and research practice – i.e., liminal regulatory spaces – and promotes an holistic approach thus far absent in HRR.
