Our research informs policy and practice聽by taking a聽distinctive user-engagement approach 鈥斅燿eveloping knowledge within the context of its use and with an聽international perspective. With a focus on聽Europe, North America, Asia and Australasia, we operate across disciplinary boundaries working with high level policy-makers, managers,聽administrators, clinicians,聽and the industrial supply chain, to develop strategic policy, implement new approaches and improve existing operational models.

We use analytical methods from health economics, technology and innovation management, organisational behaviour and management information systems.聽Our research balances action and other qualitative research with the analysis of large scale quantitative data sets and learning through partnerships with the healthcare supply chain and government.

We focus on three main areas:

  • Health system regulation, payment and incentivisation
  • Innovation and organisational change across the healthcare supply chain
  • Economic and social determinants of health and quality of life
