Curious about who we are? We’re the National Institute for Health and Care Research, also known as the NIHR. We drive life-changing research for the health and wealth of our society. Funded by @dhscgovuk, we work with people and communities, universities and the NHS to understand our most urgent health and care challenges. We then target our research where it’s needed most. Where it will make the biggest difference to people’s health and happiness. On any day, our research could discover a new vaccine that saves thousands of lives. It could make a revolutionary new treatment available and affordable for everyone. Or help someone get their independence back. From new medicines, to better treatments and services, it starts with our research.

This World Diabetes Day, we're shining a light on diabetes distress – the emotional burden of managing diabetes. Almost half of adults with type 1 diabetes experience diabetes distress, yet it can often go unrecognised in routine care. We co-funded the @dstress_study with @diabetesuk to develop and evaluate a new care pathway to help NHS diabetes teams identify and support people experiencing diabetes distress. People with lived experience are at the heart of this research. A patient forum of 14 people with personal or family experience of type 1 diabetes is helping shape the study, including its design, dissemination and co-authorship of research outputs. The research is already influencing international diabetes care, helping inform the world's first international clinical practice guideline on diabetes distress. ➡️ Swipe to hear from Calum about his experience and why he got involved, and discover how D-stress is helping shape a more holistic approach to diabetes care, one that recognises the person behind the blood sugar readings. #WorldDiabetesDay #DiabetesResearch #Type1Diabetes 14 Nov 2026 Each year, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 2.9 million people die prematurely from illnesses attributable to household air pollution. The CLEAN-Air (Africa) project is a partnership between UK researchers and health authorities and institutions in Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda and Cameroon. The project is addressing the threat of household air pollution, improving health and reducing the harmful impact on the environment. Since work started in 2018, the project has: 🍳 demonstrated that switching from polluting fuels to clean cooking liquid petroleum gas improves women’s and children’s health 🧑‍⚕️ trained 2,500 instructors who will go on to train 120,000 community health workers through policy and community engagement 📊 launched a digital tracking system to evaluate the health and economic benefits of families transitioning away from solid fuels in real time Click the link in our bio to read more in our latest #NIHR20 gamechanger on our impact across the globe. 13 Nov 2026 🌍 We’re at the forefront of global innovation, working with researchers and communities around the world to tackle some of the biggest health challenges facing people today. ➡️ Swipe to see 3 key stats, that highlight the recent worldwide impact of our research.
