The Applied Research Collaboration – Oxford and Thames Valley (ARC OTV)
ARC OTV is hosted by Oxford Health NHS foundation Trust and led from the University of Oxford’s Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences. They carry out “applied” health and social care research – research intended to solve practical problems – as opposed to more curiosity driven “basic research”.
