Research Themes

Our ARC partnership is working together to plan and carry out applied research that will make a positive difference to health and social care services, patients and the public.

Our research is driven by the needs of our communities, as well as the challenges faced by health and care systems. We focus our research on a range of key areas, including mental health, early detection and prevention of health issues, end-of-life care, ageing, managing multiple conditions, vulnerable populations, and ways to link data across services. Additionally, we look at the cost-effectiveness of care and treatments and how we can best involve patients and the public in our work.

Our ambition is to undertake world-class applied health research to answer questions relevant to our partners and to provide evidence that has regional as well as national and international impact.
