The NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) is based at Oxford University Hospitals (OUH) NHS Foundation Trust and run in partnership with the University of Oxford.
The NIHR funds, enables and delivers world-leading health and social care research that improves people’s health and wellbeing and promotes economic growth.
NIHR BRCs are collaborations between universities and NHS organisations that bring together academics and clinicians to translate scientific breakthroughs into potential new treatments, diagnostics and medical technologies that benefit patients, improve the delivery of care by the NHS and support the wider economy.
Oxford has long been at the forefront of a range of medical research disciplines – from genetics and cell therapy to neuroscience, from cardiovascular disease and cancer to the use of data and artificial intelligence.
