We are harnessing these strengths by bringing research, policy and practice together with the establishment of our new research centre, CeRAPH (Centre for Research and Action in Public Health). What we learn through research can be taught to our students as part of the sharing of best practice, and in turn both teaching and practice will shape the questions our staff pose in their research. We also host the Faculty of Health Clinics – Allied Health Service, and the National Institute of Sport Studies (UCNISS).
