We can work with you and appropriate user groups to tackle multimorbidity by discovering novel ways to intervene at different stages of life and improve the population’s number of disability-free years. 

Whether you are interested in drug development to boost resilience to age related disease, designing local and national policy initiatives, creating educational resources, analysing data, or developing products and other interventions we want to collaborate with you.

There are many ways we can work together, such as:

  • partnership agreements for long term projects that give you access to all of the University’s Healthy Lifespan related capabilities
  • consultancy for when you have a specific, short term problem to be resolved
  • PhD or postdoctoral projects for when you’ve identified a longer-term opportunity, but don’t have the in-house resource
  • development of joint research projects
  • co-production in service and policy development, locally and nationally
  • providing access to data and a substantial collection of animal models 
  • use of state of the art testing and imaging facilities
  • working with established patient cohorts 
  • drug development and clinical trials
