The Centre for Health Economics and Medicines Evaluation

The Centre, also known as CHEME, was founded in 2001 and is one of three health economics centres in Wales. Research is conducted on a local and national level within in Wales but there are also strong collaborative links with health services researchers across the UK and Europe.

CHEME is active across a wide range of health economic research interests and these can be broadly categorised (i) economic evaluation alongside clinical trials; (ii) pharmacoeconomics; and (iii) health service evaluation. The Centre also has very close links with Public Health Wales and has expertise in research regarding the health economics of cancer, dementia, sight disabilities and rural health.

The Health Economics (MSc By Research) programme is offered atÊBangor University.
