Overview

Building on a relevant masters-level qualification, you will pursue an independent piece of applied research in a health-related field, supervised by an interdisciplinary team.

Features

For the purposes of this Translational Health Sciences programme at the University of Oxford, the department defines translational health sciences as the study of the human, organisational and societal issues that impact on the adoption, dissemination and mainstreaming of research discoveries and the harnessing of such discoveries to provide effective, efficient and equitable healthcare.

Programme Structure

Research topics

How to influence behaviour eg encourage clinicians to use a new technology in their practice (or indeed how to get them to stop using a technology);

The extent to which a new drug, medical device or other innovation generates value for different stakeholders;

The challenges of introducing and sustaining an innovation at an organisational level;

How policy is made and what prevents it from being ‘evidence-based’;

How the regulatory environment can both enable and constrain innovation in healthcare settings;

How technologies can (and why they do not always) support care practices;

How patients and citizens might play an active role in research and dissemination;

How we decide what is right and reasonable in research;
