    Welcome to the NIHR Oxford Health Biomedical Research Centre

Improving brain health: the future in mind

The NIHR Oxford Health BRC is a partnership between Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Oxford.

We aim to bring the best science to the complex problems of mental disorders and dementia. These conditions are major causes of global disability and urgently need better treatments. Our patients deserve the same research excellence as in other areas of healthcare, and will help inform our research at each key step. We aim to transform discovery science into new treatments which will deliver personalised, precision care. We will harness digital and new technologies so that our solutions can have global reach.
