This year, Healthcare Science Week takes place from 13th - 19th March and brings together over 50 scientific specialisms and professional groups to celebrate and raise awareness of this diverse NHS workforce.

Over the last 75 years NHS healthcare science has played a vital role in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of disease and the health of our population.

Healthcare Science Week is an opportunity to showcase this work and inspire the scientific workforce of the future.
