About BRIHX

BRIHX is open to anyone with an interest in behavioural science in healthcare, i.e. in understanding why people behave in certain ways, or trying to change behaviour (e.g. to improve health, healthcare, or patient safety).  It aims to provide an open forum for people to present research findings, or research in progress for discussion.  If you would like to present at a future seminar, please get in touch: g.judah@imperial.ac.uk.
