PRUComm research seminar on healthcare commissioning event

On Tuesday 17 January, PRUComm hosted a Commissioning Seminar, bringing together academics with policy makers from the Department of Health in order to discuss research evidence relevant to Commissioning. In addition to the formal presentations which brought together early evidence from a number of ongoing projects, the seminar provided an excellent opportunity for policy makers and researchers to discuss their concerns, needs and issues in an informal environment. PRUComm is committed to ensuring that their research is relevant to the concerns of policy makers, whilst adhering to the highest academic standards, and this seminar was one of a series that will be organised over the coming years to provide a forum within which ideas can be shared in a supportive environment.
