CHI² leads and explores multidisciplinary research into health and care systems, and ways to improve them.
We are working on research to better understand, and solve, the practical challenges of health and social care systems.
Our research is about practically helping policy makers, managers and clinicians to identify changes that can help or resolve problems in healthcare systems. To improve current ways of doing things for everyone’s benefit – for patients, their carers, and for the staff that treat them.
