IAHS members contribute to local, national and international R & D activities in both primary and secondary care sectors. Many researchers are members of, or referees for, prestigious grant giving bodies such as the Medical Research Council (MRC), Wellcome Trust, Scottish Chief Scientist Office, contribute to policy development bodies and are external examiners or assessors of research organisations and peer reviewers for national and international scientific journals.
Strong collaborations exist with other universities, research institutions, foundations and governments within the UK, Europe, America and more than 12 developing countries. Partnerships also exist with major international and bi-lateral agencies such as the European Union (EU), the UK Department for International Development (DFID), United Nations' Children Fund (UNICEF), United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), World Bank, World Health Organisation (WHO) and the Population Council (New York). Industry-related collaborations include research projects, consultancies and membership of scientific advisory bodies.
