Unit Lead: Richard Hooper
Evaluations – of drugs, devices, behavioural interventions, organisational change, public health interventions, and policy – are the cornerstone of population health research. The example of the COVID epidemic has demonstrated the importance of innovation and efficiency in delivering these evaluations, and sound research methods must lie at the heart of evaluations if they are to have quality and integrity. The Methodology Research Unit (MRU) brings together people with interests and expertise in a number of different methodological areas, and acts as a focus for research activities that together aim for better research through better methods.
