UK LLC is now encouraging applications from longitudinal researchers and analysts who use large datasets and are interested in the depth of detail present in linked Longitudinal Population Study (LPS) datasets.

Previously research was focussed on COVID-19 projects, and while researchers may now apply for general purpose research, legal restrictions remain on the COVID-19 datasets (GP data, COVID testing and vaccination data) which mean these can still only be used for COVID relevant research projects.
