Centre for Men's Health

Welcome to the Centre for Men's Health

Established in 2007, the Centre for Men's Health is uniquely placed to help challenge, improve and understand men's health. Rather than focusing on health as primarily bio-medical, our aim is to develop an eclectic portfolio addressing the physical, psychological and social determinants that impact on the health of men.

To do this we have three programmes of work:

.           Gendered epidemiology: exploring morbidity and mortality data to identify links between gender and different diseases and conditions 

.           Men's experiences of ill-health: gathering quantitative and qualitative evidence to inform improvements in health care service delivery and professional practice

.           Men and public health: working in partnership to develop, evaluate and make critical comment on public health approaches to working with men

The Centre prides itself on its close working partnerships with a broad array of health professionals, health services including the NHS, patient groups, policy makers, charities and social enterprises.

As part of its commitment to research led education and practice, staff from the Centre regularly act as external speakers, conduct internal lecturing at undergraduate and postgraduate level and provide research student supervision at Masters and Doctoral level.
