MRC Centre of Epidemiology for Child Health

What we do

We teach and carry out research to improve children's health and wellbeing and to prevent, diagnose and treat conditions that might affect them in childhood or in later life.

We develop and apply statistical methods to complex research data and train researchers to use these methods.

We work with researchers from other disciplines and those who use our work to ensure that our research gives children the best possible start in life.
