King’s Health Partners is a partnership between the university and three large NHS Foundation Trusts - King’s College Hospital, Guy's & St Thomas’ Hospital, and South London & Maudsley Hospital.
Amongst its many ambitions, King’s Health Partners coordinates research strategy and education strategy between the four partners, and leverages the advantages of large patient populations, their samples and their data for translational research, with the ultimate aim of enhancing clinical outcomes. King’s Health Partners has a distinctive focus on the interface between mental and physical health, which speaks directly to priorities of the Division of Neuroscience. Furthermore, King’s Health Partners intends to develop a set of Institutes in a small set of priority areas, cutting across the four partners; one of these will be an Institute of Neuroscience.
