Research and innovation

RESEARCH

We are one of country’s largest teaching hospitals and are committed to developing the next generation of health and care professionals. Our strategic partnerships with the University of Warwick and Coventry University enable us to have the best research and teaching environments to support our people.

We are involved in cutting-edge research and innovation in areas such as reproductive health and human metabolism, and collaborate closely with the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) to deliver this. We want to encourage everyone at UHCW to be involved in teaching and research at scale and in a way that makes sense for them and contributes directly to improving patient outcomes.

UHCW’s Research Institutes for Excellence aim to build self-sustaining partnerships with academia and industry and support staff at UHCW who wish to become involved in research that directly contributes to improving patient outcomes. Click here to find out more.

INNOVATION

For the NHS, ‘innovation’ means doing something new that improves quality, safety, and efficiency.

With a dedicated Innovation Team at UHCW, we are able to use Innovation as a mechanism to improve patient care, staff wellbeing and operational effectiveness.

Innovation projects may harness existing technology in new ways, explore new creative ideas, implement new technology and devices or explore how future technologies could support our hospital.

We are proud of our Innovation Hub – a purpose-built space to support and encourage creativity and collaboration – where we hold brainstorming sessions, challenge definition workshops, focus groups and many more.
