NIHR, Health Services and Delivery Research (Researcher-led) Board
The NIHR Health Services and Delivery Research (HS&DR) Programme funds research to produce evidence on the quality, accessibility and organisation of health services. This includes evaluations of how the NHS might improve delivery of services. The audience for this research is the public, service users, clinicians and managers.
The programme has two workstreams: researcher-led and commissioned. The researcher-led workstream welcomes outline proposals on topics or research questions identified by researchers within the programme’s remit. The commissioning Board recommends proposals for funding. They are composed of academics with expertise across a range of relevant disciplines, NHS managers, clinicians and public contractors.
