YH ARC has 4 key themes: Healthy Families; Delivering Care Closer to Home, Health and Care in our Ageing Society; and Mental Health. Working closely with our experts in health economics and Data, Visualisation and AI we turn world-leading health and care research in the region into changes in policy and practice to improve the health and wellbeing of communities.
We work with policy makers, professionals, commissioners, patients and providers to set a research agenda that improves services and reduces health inequalities. Our communities co-produce research with academics and practitioners to meet local needs.
Our researchers work together with health and care teams to drive research that matters. Partnering on everything from innovative research methodologies, and participant recruitment, to data linkage and implementation of findings. YH ARC promotes cross-disciplinary working and training to build capacity for research that creates system-wide change.
YH ARC enables people powered, collaborative research that addresses health inequalities, and improves the health and well-being of our communities.
We also offer a varied programme of events and training such as Lunch & Learn webinars and podcasts on our You Tube channel. All our events and resources can be found on our website.
