About the NIHR School for Social Care Research

The NIHR School for Social Care Research (SSCR) was established in 2009 and is one of the leading funders of research into adult social care practice in England. The Unit's work with the School is led by Dr Mary Baginsky.

Between May 2019 and early 2024, the Unit joined with six other partner institutions in a five-year phase of the School's work. Michelle Cornes, Jo Moriarty, Kritika Samsi and Mary Baginsky are Senior Fellows of the SSCR. Jess Harris, Stephen Martineau, Nicole Steils, Jennifer Owen, and Monica Leverton are Fellows of the School.

This page includes studies funded under the NIHR Three Schools’ Dementia Research Programme. The programme brings the NIHR School for Social Care Research together with the NIHR Schools for Primary Care Research (SPCR) and Public Health Research (SPHR).
