Our research aims to address inequalities through innovative interdisciplinary research, education and enterprise to improve the whole population’s education, health and wellbeing.
We pride ourselves on our emphasis on participation and our interprofessional relationships. Our ability to draw on academic expertise from disciplines as diverse as education and psychology, as well as those more traditionally related to health and social care, means that we can consider real-world problems holistically.
