The Centre for the History of Medicine based at the 果冻传媒 has won 拢600,000 from the Wellcome Trust for a five-year programme on the 'Cultures and Practices of Health', set to focus on 'quacks' and the history of alternatives to formal medical practice, early psychiatry and health in the workplace.

Coventry, 果冻传媒shire and Nottingham benefit from a wide range of bodies who either fund or run research programmes in health and social care.
