Public Health at Birmingham (PHAB)
At PHaB, we are dedicated to advancing the evidence base for public health practice through innovative research, dedicated infrastructure, and impactful programmes aimed at promoting health and preventing ill health.
Innovating Public Health: Local and Global Impact
We particularly work with agencies and organisations outside of the NHS to evaluate programmes and initiatives.
Our work focuses on improving health outcomes, reducing inequalities, and shaping policies that create healthier communities.
With a strong foundation of research excellence and collaborative initiatives, we are committed to making a real difference in public health practice - both locally and globally.
