MSSU

Improving Maritime health care through patient-oriented research.

We support partnerships that make health research more relevant, inclusive, and impactful.

 

What is Patient-Oriented Research?

Health research that engages patients, health care professionals and health system decision makers, focuses on patient-relevant priorities and aims to improve health care systems and practices.
