The NIHR BioResource will be at the Family Weekend raising awareness of the powerful role that we can all play in health research. We’ll be inviting children, young people and families to learn more about our research programme for under 16s, which is known as D-CYPHR (the DNA, Children + Young People’s Health Resource), and how studying clues in our DNA can help to transform the lives of millions.

There will also be the opportunity to discuss our Improving Black Health Outcomes (IBHO) BioResource, which is dedicated to studying health conditions and their unique impact on Black communities. Join us at our stand during the fun Family Weekend for arts and crafts activities, and the opportunity to volunteer for research!
