University of Bristol Population Health Research

Our multi-disciplinary community spans the breadth of the university including members in the Medical, Dental and Veterinary schools, Geographical Sciences, Social Science and Law, Mathematics, Engineering and beyond. We are also proud to have links with Bristol NHS Trust, Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucester Clinical Commissioning Groups, Bristol City Council as well as many more outside of the city.

Population Health Research at the University of Bristol ranges from basic discovery science to innovative clinical trials and policy-influencing.
