What researchers want from Nottingham

Nottingham is a good place for research on everyday products. It is home to the Boots head office and a large Experian site, and to a games and digital design scene, so retail, credit, health and software teams all have reasons to ask local people what they think.

Nottingham University Hospitals runs the Queen's Medical Centre and City Hospital, two large universities sit in the city, and public health teams across the county run their own projects. That brings regular studies on patient experience, services for students and studies on local public services.

Remote studies are open across Nottingham, Derby, Mansfield and the towns between. If an in-person session is planned near you, the invitation gives the venue and timings before you say yes.
