Professor Terry Young
Honorary Professor
Research Interests
Professor Young’s research background includes numerical analysis and modeling of photonic devices, optoelectronic technologies, and lightwave systems. His interests for the past 15 years or so have been domain-focused on healthcare delivery, rather than centred on a particular discipline or technology. This includes methods for research into care delivery, including social science approaches, economic evaluation and business methods, simulation and modeling, and systems thinking, as well as interests in the underpinning technologies, particularly information systems. The Cumberland Initiative () aims to bring well over a dozen universities, many companies and a significant number of care delivery agencies together. When it reaches maturity, it is expected to represent a £20-30M p.a. concern that brings academic thinking to bear on the delivery of care and a health sector creating wealth around it.Research grants and projects
