Research theme: Health economics and data
The health economics and data theme provides support across all of our research themes, to make better use of research advances and interventions.
We are co-producing timely research on local and national priorities to benefit patients, the public, the NHS, wider public sector, and the UK economy by:
- evaluating economic impacts and value for money of interventions that are developed in the ARC North Thames
- developing new applied research methods to interrogate health data in valid, informative ways (including the linking of data).
We bring together a community of researchers with internationally-recognised expertise in:
- health economics
- statistics
- data linkage
- evidence synthesis
- operational research
- digital technologies
- epidemiology
- informatics
- computer science
- health care engineering
- geography
- built environment
- citizen science
Our research has helped improve care quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
