HSRUK statement on the outcome of the EU referendum

HSRUK offers our warmest support to staff and students from the EU. We value you as colleagues and friends and stand with you during this time of uncertainty. Regularly updated guidance is available on the Universities UK website

Health services research is hugely diverse, with staff and students of many cultures, ethnicities and beliefs. We firmly believe that this diversity is a fundamental strength of our research community.

Last month’s referendum decision to leave the EU will have consequences for universities and research as well as for our health and care system. HSR UK will be pressing government to provide reassurance for current staff and students, to confirm access to existing research and innovation funding as well as to assure future free movement of academics and  access to future funding streams.
