New thinking starts here
With so many major challenges still to face, our excellent academic community works with a range of partners and collaborators to make a difference. Together, our work makes scientific advancements, ensures future generations are heathier, and inequalities are tackled.

A place for transformative research
Our research centres and groups aim to understand more about the conditions that affect us, and address the social and policy issues that lead to inequality.
We are part of the thriving research, innovation and knowledge exchange ecosystem in Leeds. Our research is local and global; biological and social. We work to understand the body, combat disease, change policy, and improve lives.
Health promotion research is the perfect place for me, as it allows me to apply my skills to developing innovative research methods to strengthen the evidence base on community-level interventions to tackle health inequalities. In health promotion, we champion a social model of health and wellbeing, with the focus on ‘upstream’ social determinants such as employment, education, income and the places that we live, work and age, rather than ‘downstream’ determinants such as individual behaviour change.
