Research
Primary Care Research Group
The Primary Care Research Group is a diverse team consisting of clinical and non-clinical primary care team researchers
Health Inequalities, Societies and Systems
Central to our research is understanding and tackling the systemic and intersecting drivers of disparities in health over the life course such as racism, gender, crime, precarious livelihoods, environmental pollution, and inaccessible health care. We work collaboratively across the School of Life Course and Population Sciences to strengthen the theoretical aspects of population health research.
Population Health Stakeholder Involvement Group (PHSIG)
An initiative to support the Department of Population Health in developing a greater research focus on prevention and improvement of the health of communities.
Project status: Ongoing
