Stimulating Learning Environment

CIH is based on the 4th floor of the Richard Crossman Building which is a modern and flexible open plan space that includes a café style setting.  This space provides an exciting environment which enables all of our research community, staff and Post Graduates, to engage with one another in a collaborative way. The centre will also open, in the autumn of 2020, a brand new facility for healthcare technology research, which includes a Clean Room and Physiological Measurement lab.

Extra Postgraduate Opportunities

The Centre for Intelligent Healthcare hosts regular collaborative research seminars, where our PGR community regularly take part and lead on seminars with academic staff.  These sessions also include key speakers from the healthcare sector and industry, whom the research centre has strong connections with.  As our research centre sits within the Faculty of Health & Life Sciences, there is an annual Research PGR Conference where an exciting programme is developed which focuses on the PGRs research, where you will be encouraged to design a research poster or present.  On top of these events, the University also hosts a wide and varied development programme specifically designed for the University’s Post Graduate Community from across the health research centres and are encouraged to attend.
