Centre for Health and Social Care Research
Faculty of Health researchers are based within the Centre for Health and Social Care Research (CHSCR).
We provide high-quality research for patients, health care practitioners and students.
Research is focused on the educational development of students and health care colleagues, and on the translation of laboratory-based medical science into applied patient care.
The research team
Our researchers are health professionals, medical and social scientists from across the Faculty.
They work alongside the Graduate School, which acts as a base for MPhil or PhD students.
