The main research focus for iPCHS is in the area of musculoskeletal conditions. This work is carried out by multi-disciplinary teams of academics and clinicians, with input from active research user groups.  Our research aims to contribute towards preventing musculoskeletal conditions from starting, getting worse or causing long-term disability in later life.
