The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences cover all aspects of the UK Clinical Research Collaboration pipeline from underpinning research to health services policies and systems by conducting biological, psychological and economic research, complex clinical trials and economic evaluations in complex interventions for acute conditions and in the rehabilitation and management of long-term conditions. Our research makes a significant contribution to scientific understanding, informs the agendas of major research organisations and the direction of government policies and underpins the development and delivery of patient care in the UK and across the world.
We have substantial strengths in biomedical sciences; nutrition; clinical science; epidemiology and public health; health economics; health services research; psychological sciences and mental health; rehabilitation and nursing sciences. Today our Faculty holds more than £25 million in external research funding across more than 150 live projects. Funders for our research include the UK Research Councils, the European Commission and the National Institute for Health Research.
The research strategy of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences encourages and supports work across the Faculty and capitalises on the strengths in each of the three Schools; the Norwich Medical School, the School of Allied Health professions and the School of Nursing Sciences. Members of the Faculty also work closely with other researchers and scientists across the University and across the member organisations of the Norwich Research Park, an internationally recognised centre of research excellence.
