Evidence-based Health Policy Center
Abouts us
Indonesian Medical Education and Research Institute (IMERI) is a research and innovation unit under the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Indonesia (FKUI). As the first integrated institute of its kind in Indonesia, IMERI brings together multidisciplinary research clusters, high-end core facilities, and a vibrant network of national and international collaborators. We invite partners who share our commitment to evidence-based innovation, capacity building, and transformative health solutions to explore meaningful collaboration across education, research, and policy engagement.
The Evidence-Based Health Policy Center (EBHPC) is a research cluster under IMERI-FKUI dedicated to advancing health policy and service delivery. EBHPC aims to ensure that evidence and research insights not only inform clinical practice from bench to bedside, but also generate meaningful impact at the community and policymaking level. Our aim is realized through the development of evidence-based policy recommendations grounded in rigorous methodologies, as well as research outcomes produced within IMERI and FKUI. Serving as a collaborative nexus, EBHPC connects researchers from FKUI, IMERI, and national and international partners in health policy and service delivery development.
