In autumn 2022, the National Institute for Health and Research (NIHR) and EPSRC will issue a joint opportunity for research. They are inviting proposals from multidisciplinary teams to take a systems design and engineering approach to improve services for people with multiple long-term conditions (MLTC) and their carers.

Given the focus on bringing NIHR and EPSRC communities together for a large-scale programme, attendees will also be invited to provide feedback on the opportunity specification and consider the opportunities and challenges of the proposed commissioning approach.
