Since 2013, King's Improvement Science (KIS) has worked with health and social care professionals, academic partners, patients and the public to improve the quality of health and care for people in south London, through improvement research. In September 2025, our King’s Health Partners-funded programme concluded.

This website provides a record of our work and links to practical resources for quality improvement leads, researchers, clinicians or public involvement members working to improve health and care services to achieve better outcomes for patients and service users.

Recent research projects

KIS researchers work with partner organisations on projects to support the delivery of local health and care. They use implementation and improvement science to plan and evaluate health and care interventions to improve patient outcomes.
