School of Medicine staff and students undertake a broad range of clinical, laboratory and educational research. We also host the Keele Institute for Global Health, the Keele Clinical Trials Unit, and the Impact Accelerator Unit.

Overview

Keele's School of Medicine hosts three faculty research themes:

• Musculoskeletal health - to design, produce and implement world leading interdisciplinary research and evidence, which improves the prevention, identification, diagnosis and management (self-management, treatments and models of care) of musculoskeletal health.
• Mental health and wellbeing - spanning a range of topics from common mental health problems (anxiety and depression) to severe mental illness and dementia across UK and global healthcare contexts.
• Health professional education - developing, implementing and evaluating innovations in health care education research into practice.

These are underpinned by methodological strengths including biostatistics (including big data analytics using medical record databases, clinical trials, and prognostic modelling and risk prediction), mixed methods research, and systematic reviews and evidence synthesis.

Our key memberships include:

• NIHR National School for Primary Care Research
• NIHR Collaborations for Applied Health Research and Care West Midlands
• Versus Arthritis Primary Care Centre of Excellence
• NIHR Incubator for Clinical Education

We also host students in key doctoral training partnerships including:

• Wellcome Trust PhD Programme for Primary Care Clinicians
• ESRC The North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership
• NIHR Integrated Academic Training Programme
