Our research
Our public health research spans a broad range of topics, including the impact of the natural environment on health, social prescribing, making sure children have a fair start in life, making communities healthy places to live and making sure schools and families are safe places.
We work closely with our NHS and NIHR partners and local authority and national public health stakeholders to ensure our research is relevant and timely.
Our researchers use the full range of analytic methods available to address important policy and practice questions, alongside our history of high-quality and impactful natural experiments and randomised trials in public health.
