Dedicated to improving health outcomes
What is PenCLAHRC?
The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care (CLAHRC) for the South West Peninsula - or PenCLAHRC - undertakes high-quality applied health research focused on the needs of patients and support the translation of research evidence into practice in the NHS.
What are our primary aims?
CLAHRCs are collaborative partnerships between universities and the surrounding NHS organisations, focused on improving patient outcomes through the conduct and application of applied health research. They create and embed approaches to research and its dissemination that are specifically designed to take account of the way that health care is increasingly delivered across sectors and a wide geographical area.
