Who Are We?

We bring together behavioural scientists, computer scientists, clinical academics and health services researchers and are currently expanding the group to embrace a wider range of disciplines and interventions. 

Over the past 15 years the work of our large interdisciplinary research group has been funded by over £100 million of external grants and has developed interventions that have been rolled out nationally and internationally, working with public and private sector partners.

Examples include our weight management intervention which is part of the NHS Diabetes Education and Prevention programmes and the Germ Defence intervention to prevent infection transmission in the home, which had over 600,000 users during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Based in the University of Southampton, our members’ research and education expertise spans Psychology, Health Sciences, Medicine and Computer Science.
