Overview
The new Centre for Health and Social Care Research brings together health professionals, medical and social scientists from across the Faculty of Health to provide high-quality research for the benefit of patients, health care practitioners and students.
The research is organised under four main themes:
- applications of technology to health care
- professional practice and organisational development in health
-
applied medical and health sciences
-
learning, teaching and scholarship of health
Each theme is focused on and ranges from applied research in patient and service user care and treatment, to understanding ways of developing the practice of health professionals. It is intended that the research will contribute to the translation of laboratory-based medical science into applied patient and community care.
The Centre has a strong commitment to knowledge transfer and will be working on many projects in collaboration with Health services, local hospitals, industrial partners and other universities both nationally and internationally.
