We are keen to share healthcare research news of Leicestershire & Northamptonshire Academic Health Partners (LNAHP) in the media and actively promote exciting and ground-breaking developments made within our Academic Themes and partner organisations.

We also hold training and events throughout the year for staff from our partner organisations. We run and take part in events for our stakeholders and for members of the public to attend to find out more about healthcare research, research we are working on, and why research is so important for the local populations we serve.
