International Health Research Institute

Welcome to the new website of the International Health Research Institute (IHRI). The IHRI is a professional body established to encourage good working practices within healthcare-related employment and the medical research industries.  We encourage inter-professional team building in line with various guidelines set out by both national and global organisations. It is our belief that professionalism within the health services starts at the university educational level and continues onward by the use of Continued Professional Development programmes (CPD). This is why we wish to aim our efforts at ensuring that students and newly qualified graduates come out with the best quality of degree, one with theory and considerable practical experience combined. 

The institute currently provides various free services to other established research groups in the areas of genetics, biochemistry and zoology. As an organisation we are proud of our commitment to detail on every project so far and now wish to attempt to create student placements in whatever we become involved in during the future. This would create an additional learning environment outside of the lecture theatre, thus providing further work experience early on in a career in order to produce highly qualified and experienced healthcare professionals.
