What we do
The Bradford Institute for Health Research is a leading centre for applied and clinical research, locally, nationally and internationally.
Health research paves the way for advancements in healthcare and well-being. It drives the development of new treatments and care methods that improve lives. Without ongoing research efforts, the NHS and the broader healthcare system would not be able to offer the services available today. The Bradford Institute for Health Research is a pioneering centre spearheading applied and clinical research that make an impact locally, across the nation, and around the world.
