In November 2018, the NIHR Oxford BRC jointly organised an international symposium to discuss how to maximise the impact of medical research.

Some 87 delegates from eight countries took part in the symposium, ‘In the Trenches: Research Translation for Health Impact’, at Jesus College, Oxford.

Now, two of the delegates, Alex Rushforth, of the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, and Adam Kamenetzky, of King’s College London, have written an impact blog for the London School of Economics, outlining how the concept of research impact has developed in health research.

They highlight three key areas of interest; complexity, community and continuity and suggest that to advance, health impact research needs to adopt a more reflexive critical approach to value.
