The increasing burden of chronic conditions has been described as one of the greatest global challenges facing health systems and health services in the 21st century. The Health Services Research Group focuses on improving health services and care for people with chronic conditions by conducting investigations of issues and problems such as need and demand for services, service organisation and delivery, health care quality and efficiency and the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of health service interventions. We have several key interdisciplinary research strands which focus on the global challenges of addressing chronic health care. The HSRG comprises also an international strand of Global Health and Health Care Research (led by our Global Health Champion, Professor Nathan Congdon).
Current academic staff members of the collaborative interdisciplinary Health Services Research Group are listed below:
Professor Michael Donnelly (Research Group Lead), Professor Ciaran O’Neill (Health Economics), Professor Mike Clarke (Methodology), Professor Augusto Azuara-Blanco (Eye Health Services Research), Professor Nathan Congdon (Global Health Services Research), Professor Tunde Peto (Eye Health Services Research), Dr Ruth Hogg (Eye Health Services Research), Dr Yuanbo Liang (Eye Health Services Research), Dr Gerry McKenna (Oral Health Services Research), Dr Helen McAneney (Methodology and Statisitcs), Dr Noleen McCorry (Health Psychology Services and Intervention Research), Dr Lyn Lohfeld (Social Anthropology and Global Health Services Research)
There are easily-traveled pathways between the HSRG and the other research groups in CPH and other research centres in the QUB School of Medicine, Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences. Many researchers in CPH work across research groups and research centres to conduct collaborative public health and health services research with the HSRG and care professional colleagues in health services, here in Ireland and the UK and internationally. We have a thriving postdoctoral research community including clinical research fellows and up to 25 PhD students at any one time.
