Organisation profile
The Health Promotion research group works towards understanding what underlies health and wellbeing at all levels of society, whether it is national government policy, local community actions, health and social care settings or individuals and their families.
We work with national and international research partners, health data providers, local government, care providers and the public. Our research falls into three major themes.
Epidemiology and Public Health
Optimising Care
Behavioural Science
