Oxford Academic Health Science Network

Health Innovation Oxford and Thames Valley, formerly known as the Oxford Academic Health Science Network, is a partnership organization that bridges the gap between the National Health Service (NHS), academic institutions, and the life sciences industry. Its primary mission is to accelerate the adoption of innovative medical technologies, diagnostics, and digital health solutions into clinical practice to improve patient outcomes and healthcare efficiency. The organization provides expertise in real-world evidence generation, clinical product evaluation, and system-wide implementation across the Thames Valley region. It serves as a critical link in the UK's life sciences ecosystem, supporting both small-to-medium enterprises and large pharmaceutical companies in navigating the NHS landscape.
