Pioneering Tissue Research in Childhood Arthritis

TRICIA is a UK-wide collaborative network advancing research into juvenile idiopathic arthritis through minimally invasive tissue sampling and cutting-edge analytics.

Steering Committee

The TRICIA Consortium Steering Committee (SC) provides independent oversight of the consortium’s progress and implementation. Its role is to ensure the integrity, transparency, and effectiveness of TRICIA’s research activities by overseeing data access, safety and security, data sharing, collaborations, and the dissemination of findings.

The Steering Committee advises the Consortium Management Group (CMG) and Principal Investigators, offering strategic guidance and ensuring that TRICIA remains aligned with its scientific and ethical commitments. It consists of an independent Chair, stakeholder representatives, parent and patient representatives, and independent co-opted experts who bring valuable external perspectives to support the consortium’s goals.

By maintaining rigorous governance and fostering collaboration, the Steering Committee plays a crucial role in driving the success and impact of the TRICIA consortium.
