The National Institute for Health Research Health Technology Assessment (NIHR HTA) programme commissions research in three different ways;

  • by advertising standard calls for research proposals that address specific topics;
  • by advertising special calls for research proposals that address themed areas; and
  • by funding HTA clinical trials and evaluation studies that are proposed directly by researchers.
  • The NIHR Health Technology Assessment programme is funded by the NIHR, with contributions from the CSO in Scotland and NISCHR in Wales.
