Workshop: Multiple Long-Term Conditions Cross NIHR Collaboration (MLTC NIHR CNC) Methodologies

Research into Multiple Long-Term Conditions (MLTC) is a strategic priority for the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR). A Multiple Long-Term Conditions Cross-NIHR Collaboration (MLTC CNC) has recently being established to bring together the NIHR’s translational, applied and policy research infrastructure to respond to the NIHR Strategic Framework for MLTC Research. The aim is to work together to tackle the MLTC research questions that could not be achieved without cross-disciplinary collaborative endeavour. This new collaboration is being led by Professor Kamlesh Khunti and Professor Avan Sayer, and will be inclusive of all parts of NIHR to maximise the use of existing resources, leverage additional funding, attract commercial and non-commercial partners and collaborators, and build research capability, capacity and leadership in MLTC research.

The methodologies workstream will be hosting an event that will bring together a small group of experts, including Early Career Researchers from across the NIHR infrastructure to identify the key challenges and potential solutions around methodologies to treat, prevent and manage the consequences of MLTC.

If you are interested in attending the event please email through an expression of interest to eleanor.lockhart@newcastle.ac.uk by 4th August.
