Equity in Health Protection: Key Takeaways from UKHSA Conference

News • April 02, 2025 • Written by: Methods • Read time: 2 mins

The recent UKHSA conference in Manchester brought academia, government, and industry together to address how to tackle health equity and provide health protection to communities.

Methods works with UKHSA in many important areas, from data analysis to updating public health systems, and we used this conference to share how we help improve health protection using new technology.

The conference taught us several important things:

  • Why joining different health data systems together matters
  • How smart computer programmes can spot disease outbreaks earlier
  • Ways to keep improving digital health systems after the pandemic
  • How government and companies can work better together
  • Better ways to talk with the public during health emergencies

Methods help achieve goals by connecting different data sources, using artificial intelligence to watch for health problems, modernising old computer systems, and training health staff.

The conference also showed how important it is to plan for future health threats. By working together and using the right technology, we can better protect people across the UK from illness. Our team at Methods is proud to support this vital work that helps keep communities safe and healthy.

Looking ahead, we are excited to build on the ideas shared at the conference. We believe that better technology, used in the right way, can make a real difference to public health across Britain.
