Our aim is to help people live happier and healthier lives for longer.
Our research centres are advancing digital health through AI, wearables and telehealth, developing trauma-informed mental health support and strengthening rehabilitation and recovery. By collaborating with the NHS, healthcare providers, policymakers and industry, we are translating research and innovation into practical improvements across health systems and communities.
Our vision
We’re investing in approaches that anticipate a sustainable future for healthcare. As well as producing preventative and people-centred evidence, we're actively embedding it in how care is delivered, how people recover and how communities stay well.
