The Policy Research Unit in Maternal and Neonatal Health and Care (PRU-MNHC) began a programme of work in January 2019 with funding from the Policy Research Programme at the Department of Health and Social Care (England) via the National Institute for Health Research.
The NPEU Clinical Trials Unit (NPEU CTU) is a fully registered UKCRC Clinical Trials Unit and typically runs a number of large multi-centre Randomised Controlled Trials.
The NPEU also conducts Social Sciences, Health Economics and Epidemiological Research (SHEER) which includes on-going influential studies.
The University of Oxford is pleased to announce that, as of Monday 2 February, the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit (NPEU) has officially joined the Nuffield Department of Women's & Reproductive Health (NDWRH).
This marks a significant milestone in a partnership first announced in 2025 and represents a major strategic step in strengthening Oxford's leadership in women's, maternal and reproductive health research and education.
