30 delegates from around China gathered to hear talks by ScHARR Professors Simon Dixon, John Brazier and Dr Praveen Thokala who delivered presentations online alongside academics from Shandong and Tianjin universities. The event was led by Professor Sun Qiang from Shandong University.

The workshops are part of the UK-China Health and Economy Partnership, which is a collaboration between leading Chinese and UK universities. The UK-China Health and Economy Partnership is a novel knowledge transfer partnership that will promote long-term collaboration between University of ºù«Ӱҵ, University of York, Bournemouth University and University of Leeds in the UK and Fudan University, Shandong University and Zhejiang University in China.

The partnership aims to create long-term, sustainable collaboration in health economics, which will give UK and Chinese academics the means to work together on world-class educational and research outcomes that would otherwise not be possible working in isolation.

The Partnership is funded by GSK and the British Council.
