How can we fund research for people, not conditions?
How can we fund research for people, not conditions?
Opinion: It is more than 10 years since landmark UK studies underlined the “new normal” of multiple morbidity. More people now live with several health problems at an earlier age and health inequalities have increased, but most clinical services remain geared towards management of single diseases. Research systems have reinforced these distortions, with a focus often on single condition research, typically excluding people with comorbidities as trial participants.

Abstract
Opinion: It is more than 10 years since landmark UK studies underlined the “new normal” of multiple morbidity. More people now live with several health problems at an earlier age and health inequalities have increased, but most clinical services remain geared towards management of single diseases. Research systems have reinforced these distortions, with a focus often on single condition research, typically excluding people with comorbidities as trial participants.
