REF 2021
The impact of UCL Population Health Sciences research on the wider world has been recognised in the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021 results.
REF is the external system for assessing the quality of research across the UK’s higher education. It’s a bit like the Olympics for Research – only happening every few years - with REF 2021 being the second assessment carried out, with the first one issued back in 2014.
We are delighted with the results.
