COVID-19: National Core Studies impact report

The new National Core Studies impact report highlights how the advances and learning gained during the studies has translated into a legacy of stronger health threat preparedness.

The HSE led PROTECT study is one of six National Core Studies that have played a critical role in informing the UK's COVID-19 response.

Our first combined impact report shows how we are enabling the UK to use health data and research to inform the short and long term responses to COVID-19 and establishing a world-leading health data and research infrastructure for the future.

Latest science publications: making the world a healthier place for farmers

HSE’s scientists have been working with scientists at the Institute of Occupational Medicine in a study that examined recall ability related to pesticide exposure.

Occupational epidemiological studies on pesticide use commonly rely on self-reported data to assess exposure, but there is little evidence to assess the reliability of these reports.

It is HSE policy to make the results of research available, wherever possible. View the latest science publications and research reports.
