Theme CaRe Days 2024

The theme for the CaRe Days 2024 reads:

Empowering Health Care Transition. Our Research as a Catalyst for Transformation.

Sustaining the current level of care will become increasingly challenging in the future, due to escalating costs and a shortage of manpower. Therefore the healthcare sector is evolving rapidly. This varies from technological advancements and policy changes to shifts in approaches to patient care.

How do we cope with all these changes? And what role does AI play in this all?

Our role as researchers is very important to monitor and facilitate these changes in the future. What can we do and where should we focus on?

We cordially invite you to join us on 29 and 30 May in Eindhoven.

Public Health and Care Research Leadership programme

July 2021 the first edition of the Public Health and Care Research Leadership programme started. Last year the third cohort started. 
This programme is designed to support talented researchers (>5 years after obtaining PhD, i.e. senior researcher/assistent professor/associate professor), the future leaders in the field of public health and care research, to become excellent leaders with a mission. It is a collaboration between CaRe, UMIO, Cambridge Institute of Public Health and Erasmus MC NIHES. 

The next edition will start next July in Cambridge. If you are interested in participating, you can contact your institute director.

The mission of The Netherlands School of Public Health and Care Research concerns: contributing to better health and health care through high quality training of young researchers and multidisciplinary cooperation between excellent research institutes in the field of primary health care, transmural care, public and occupational health and health policy, focused on the development and implementation of new scientific knowledge in these fields.

This mission is shared by the four participating research institutes of CaRe, i.e. CAPHRI (Care And Public Health Research Institute) of Maastricht University, Radboud University, APH (Amsterdam Public Health research institute) of the VUmc, AMC, VU and UvA in Amsterdam, and Nivel (Netherlands Institute for Health Services Research) in Utrecht.
