General Practice
Research in General Practice is done with a focus on the primary care perspective, which means that there are differences compared to research in hospital-based care. Under the umbrella of General Practice are included aspects of health throughout life, as well as the preventative, treating, and evaluative perspectives of disease.
Description
The group General Practice does research on many different health conditions, and uses both quantitative and qualitative methodologies.
