Kieran Walshe, Professor of Health Policy and Management at Manchester Business School has been a leading researcher in health care for over three decades, exploring the intersection of research, policy, and practice to engage with policy and practitioner communities and to put ideas into action.
Walshe recently joined Paul Leavoy on Ascend Radio to discuss the benefits regulators can gain by building in-house research capacity and how any regulator – regardless of their size and resources – can get started. Their wide-ranging conversation touched on topics such as:
- Why Walshe believes regulators need in-house research capabilities and how they benefit from them.
- How research can be transferred across different regulatory domains.
- Real-world examples of how regulators in the U.K. have used research to improve their impact and effectiveness.
- Simple steps regulators of any size can take to build research capacity within their organizations.
- Notable findings from Walshe’s decades of research and experience in health policy, health management, and health services research.
