Understanding what determines people’s physical and mental health, and health behaviours.
Identifying, developing and evaluating effective public health (PH) interventions.
Generating evidence to inform strategies to reduce inequalities in health.
Developing new theory and methods, and new ways to apply them to public health challenges.
