Our Response To the COVID19 Pandemic
Working with partners across the health and care system, NIHR is leading, enabling and delivering world-class COVID-19 research, a key element of the Government’s overall response to the pandemic. Find out more on the NIHR website.
On behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care, the NIHR is funding and helping to deliver a range of rapid response research to better understand and tackle COVID-19, including research into vaccines, treatments and diagnostic tests, and real-time collection of samples and data from people undergoing treatment in hospitals. We are doing this in close cooperation with Public Health England, UK Research & Innovation, the Health Research Authority and others. The Clinical Research Network is helping to set up and run these studies in every region of England.
