The Wolfson Institute of Population Health (WIPH) is an exciting and dynamic environment, home to 450 staff, 100 PhD students and 500 postgraduate taught students. It harnesses expertise across a wide range of population-based research and education activities and aims to be an internationally recognised centre of excellence in population health, primary care and preventive medicine. The Institute is organised into six separate research centres which,
though complementary and following the Institute strategic plan, also have Centre-specific objectives and requirements.
The Centre for Primary Care encompasses the work of the Primary Care Unit and the Clinical Effectiveness Group. The Primary Care Unit brings together expert teams to carry out research into the environment, asthma and infection, multiple long-term conditions, and the complexity of everyday experience, healthcare interactions and working practices. The Clinical Effectiveness Group (CEG) uses primary care health data for research, with a particular interest in reducing health inequalities and improving population health.
