Research practice

Alnwick Medical Group is a research practice.

Research can:

  • Find new and better ways of preventing, diagnosing and treating diseases or conditions
  • Test new ideas that could improve the lives of people receiving health or social care
  • Look at the costs and benefits of making changes in the community. Examples include introducing exercise programmes or screening for cancer in certain age groups
  • Help us understand how NHS and social care services can run in a more efficient way.

For more information visit the National Institute for Health and Care Research website.

When research projects become available, we will post them on this web page. This will include a little information about each study.
