Get involved

We understand that our work doesn't just belong in academic papers - it belongs in the public realm, where it can deliver meaningful change. However, science can be complex and daunting, so over the years, we've developed a public engagement and involvement programme that is dynamic, diverse and far reaching.

Public and patient involvement

Within the NIHR Health Protection Research Unit in Emerging and Zoonotic Infections, we established a public and patient involvement panel in 2015. This grants our researchers access to the valuable input of patients and the public into our work.
