Newcastle Health Research Partnership, one of eight Academic Health Science Centres in the UK, brings together world-class research, innovation, education and training to benefit the region.
Formerly known as Newcastle Health Innovation Partners, the new name reinforces its historical and future emphasis on research, whilst continuing its mission to improve health outcomes and reduce health inequalities through research-driven solutions.
NHRP aims to build on the collective strength of partners and continue in its mission to enhance population health, reduce health inequalities and drive economic prosperity.

NHRP Academy
The NHRP Academy supports NMAHPs, pharmacists and healthcare scientists to build the future national and international research leaders. Their senior clinical academics have helped to develop key research capacity building initiatives, such as the HEE Internships and NIHR ICA Pathway.
They contribute to fellowship funding panels and directly mentor and supervise talented individuals across the clinical academic pathway. From internships and pre-doctoral awards to doctoral, post-doctoral and ultimately to professorial awards.
They have a track record of securing national, competitive funding across this pathway and have secured fellowships from NIHR, MRC, Wellcome Trust and major charities.
Their health and care professionals have international reputations for leading cutting edge, interdisciplinary research and providing exciting training opportunities for colleagues to join established research teams. They are committed to supporting clinicians across the training pathway and being flexible to each applicant’s needs.
