PHG Cambridge is an independent not-for-profit consultancy providing expert guidance on responsible healthcare innovation.
Since 1997, we have helped guide genomics into mainstream healthcare. Now, as an independent consultancy, we continue our mission to make science work for everyone’s health. From new discoveries to deployed technologies, our team of specialists works with professionals across the public, commercial, and academic sectors to ensure that new policies, products, and innovations will bring genuine benefit to real people.
We partner with public authorities, healthtech companies, and university researchers to address the policy, governance and ethical challenges of healthcare innovation. Whatever your ambition, you can rely on our unique mix of science and humanities expertise to give you the confidence to innovate.
PHG Cambridge is a linked exempt charity of the University of Cambridge and is regulated by HEFCE.
Working with us
For three decades PHG Cambridge has been the bridge between researchers, clinicians, industry leaders, and policy makers working within and for health systems. We can help you translate the best science and technology to deliver better health for all, safely and efficiently.
Our people
Our experienced staff and associates from a wide range of backgrounds provide specialist expertise in: legal, regulatory and ethical analysis, stakeholder engagement and consensus building; technology assessment and evaluation. PHG Cambridge’s reputation for responsible, fair and independent advice allows us access to an extensive network of academic researchers, health professionals and policy makers.
Our strategic direction
This strategy sets three principal aims for 2025 to 2030: to support the responsible implementation of emerging health technologies, to optimise the use of data underpinning these, and to shape the future of personalised and preventative health services. We will work with researchers, health professionals and policy makers, and across the commercial, charitable and public sectors to anticipate the challenges and secure the benefits of translating science into health.
Vision, mission and values
Healthcare today is complex. The science behind it is fast moving and governments, companies and researchers globally are racing to innovate. But success doesn’t depend on scientific advances alone. It also depends on human relationships. By keeping people and their interests at the centre of our work, we continue to deliver our mission to make science work for everyone’s health.
