Stroke Research Group

We are a multidisciplinary group (epidemiologists, stroke physicians, GPs, social scientists, statisticians, health informaticians and health economists) focused on stroke and with a wider interest in vascular long-term conditions and analytics.

Epidemiology research group

The Epidemiology research group focuses on epidemiological methodologies and applications in public health and health services research

Rehabilitation & Health Research Group

Our overarching goal is to adopt a multidisciplinary approach to optimise the benefit of rehabilitation to patients and their carers through excellence in research

Improving the lives of stroke survivors with data

We aim to improve the lives of stroke survivors through a programme of stakeholder engagement, data collection, analysis and modelling, and use in practice.

Project status: Ongoing
