This site contains an overview of the projects of the first funding period (2016-2020) of the Leibniz Science Campus Ruhr.
Research Area
Regional Variation
Health care supply and demand display large regional variation. LSCR studies the reasons for this variation and considers the consequences for health policy. This research area consists of the following five projects.
Research Area
Sustainable Supply
Demographic trends will result in a reduction of qualified health-care personnel. We analyse how this development will affect health care provision in order to develop solutions that ensure access to ambulatory care in rural areas.
Research Area
Prevention
In the face of dwindling health-care resources, one way to maintain high-quality care is by reducing demand. In this context, disease prevention and understanding health care demand are increasingly important.
