Sections in ScHARR
ScHARR is organised into sections which reflect either disciplinary or, more commonly, topic focused groupings. Although the sections have considerable autonomy the degree of collaboration between them in both teaching and research is very substantial. Below is a summary of the current sections in the School of Health and Related Research, along with links to their individual web pages.
Health Economics and Decision Science (HEDS)
Health Economics and Decision Science (HEDS) comprises the former Sheffield Health Economics Group (SHEG), Operational Research, Health Policy and Management and
Information Resources groups of ScHARR. The Information Resources group includes the ScHARR Library.
HEDS includes collaborations such as the Centre for Bayesian Statistics in Health Economics (CHEBS), the Centre for Wellbeing in Public Policy (CWiPP), the NICE Decision Support Unit, the White Rose Initiative on Health Technology Assessment, and the ScHARR Technology Assessment Group (ScHARR-TAG).
