Health Data Research UK
We are uniting the UK’s health data to enable discoveries that improve people’s lives.
By making health data available to researchers and innovators we can better understand diseases and find ways to prevent, treat and cure them.
What is health data science?
Health data science combines maths, statistics and technology to study different types of health problems using data. It helps us to better understand diseases and conditions and can provide new ways of treating them or spotting them earlier
Work with us
We give people who work with us a unique chance to learn from, and be part of, an extraordinary and talented team. We invest in people’s development and anticipate that each role will offer exciting career opportunities for each candidate.
