BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 researchLearn more about our research and its impact in a range of medical fields
BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 research ranges from basic cellular and molecular biology right through to the epidemiology of service provision. We have a long-established relationship with Cancer Research UK and are home to the UK's first centre for cancer immunology.
We aim to foster high quality cancer research with an emphasis on translating theory into viable clinical applications.
Over 100 researchers, clinicians and associated staff work as coordinated teams across several disciplines. This enables us to bring discoveries into clinical practice as quickly as possible, and to ensure that the scientific hypotheses underlying cancer treatments are fully tested.
BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 researchers and educators aim to promote human health across the lifecourse. We characterise:
- transgenerational genetic, lifestyle and behavioural influences on growth, development and function
- how early life events influence functional capacity and resilience in later life
- how functional capacity is altered with disease and early ageing
We investigate mechanisms and test interventions, studying molecules, cells, individuals and populations. We are especially interested in musculoskeletal, metabolic, and immune/inflammatory health.
The school incorporates the Medical Research Council Lifecourse Epidemiology Centre and is closely linked with the NIHR BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 Biomedical Research Centre.
BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 research groups are:
- human genetics and genomic medicine
- epigenetics
- developmental physiology and medicine
- nutrition, endocrinology and metabolism
- bone and joint
- global health
BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 researchers are driven by a desire to create better treatments and diagnostics for their patients, specialising in world-leading patient-focused translational research. We've conducted many clinical trials, including being a leading centre for the COVID vaccine trials.
We work with both commercial and non-commercial partners to stay at the forefront of research, and many of our researchers work in the NIHR BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 Biomedical Research Centre. Insights gained from our work are now underpinning novel treatments, gene therapies and stem cell research.
BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 work focuses on 5 main areas, each with their own specific research and educational aims:
- infection and immunology
- allergy and respiratory
- clinical neurosciences
- integrative physiology
- psychiatry
We work across the faculties to deliver interdisciplinary projects, bringing new technologies and methods to our patient-centred work.
We undertake a wide range of research, teaching and enterprise activities:
- the Primary Care Research Centre is a world-leading centre for primary care research and a member of the NIHR School of Primary Care Research
- Population Health Sciences
- Medical Education hosts many of our senior educators in addition to the Centre for Learning Anatomical Science (CLAS)
NIHR Research Design Service South Central is one of 10 regional centres. We offer methodological, public involvement, and general research advice to researchers applying for funding. We support applications for research funding in health and social care being submitted to the NIHR, and to other open, national, peer-reviewed schemes.
BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 research is multi-disciplinary and broad, delivering high quality, evidence-based health research to enhance prevention, early detection and management of health-related conditions.
We collaborate nationally and internationally with academics and clinicians to develop, deliver and implement research that has an impact on policy and clinical practice. BOB体育登录网址_欧宝体育官网平台-APP|下载 active patient and public involvement members help ensure our research is both inclusive and relevant to patients’ priorities.
We help develop the next generation of researchers and clinicians. We have active early researcher and postgraduate groups, and our staff make major contributions to medical undergraduate teaching and postgraduate training.
