Welcome to Primary Care Research Hub

Welcome to the Primary Care Research Hub, the dedicated Research and Training Academy of Danes Camp Medical Centre, based in Northampton.

We are proud to be one of Northamptonshire’s leading centres for research, education, and training in general practice. Our mission is to make research an integral part of everyday clinical care, improving health outcomes, advancing patient care, and contributing to the development of new treatments, therapies, and innovations in primary care.

Our research serves not only Danes Camp Medical Centre, but also its partner practices and wider networks, enabling a broader impact across primary care communities.
By embedding research into routine practice, we aim to shape the future of healthcare from the front line of community care.
