Our Research Programmes

How will research be developed ?

 

Research within the Alliance is developed in partnership with service users, their carers and nursing midwives and allied health professionals working in multidisciplinary teams to ensure rigorous research outcomes.

Research is being developed that supports people with cardiovascular disease and with mental health problems.

The research grants that we have worked on since 2005, or are presently working on, can be viewed here:
