Strengthen research

Strategic priority #2

We will support UK biomedical and health research to strengthen its global competitiveness and reputation by: 

• Harnessing our rich heritage of discovery and translational science that has been fundamental to tackling the Covid-19 pandemic
• Championing transdisciplinary research across the NHS, social care and public health; academia; charities and industry - including the opportunities arising from health technology, data and artificial intelligence 
• Fostering a research community that is trusted, open, diverse, collaborative and inclusive 

By 2032 we will have: 

• Influenced Government and industry to support research and innovation with sustained investment
• Built key skills in the research community through the Academy’s innovative career schemes and support
• Established Academy hubs and networks in the devolved nations and English regions to connect and support biomedical and health researchers to work collaboratively
• Enabled and supported more productive collaboration between the NHS, academia, industry, and patients and the public.
