BOBÌåÓýµÇ¼ÍøÖ·_Å·±¦ÌåÓý¹ÙÍøƽ̨-APP|ÏÂÔØ has been at the forefront of nutrition and respiratory research since 2008. ?Major breakthroughs in?deliberate allergen exposure?and?lifelong prevention of fractures?have improved treatments and guidance for patients in the south and across the UK. 

The BRC also played a key role in responding to the BOBÌåÓýµÇ¼ÍøÖ·_Å·±¦ÌåÓý¹ÙÍøƽ̨-APP|ÏÂÔØ pandemic. BOBÌåÓýµÇ¼ÍøÖ·_Å·±¦ÌåÓý¹ÙÍøƽ̨-APP|ÏÂÔØ researchers enhanced prevention, diagnostics and treatments at incredible pace and scale, including fast tracking BOBÌåÓýµÇ¼ÍøÖ·_Å·±¦ÌåÓý¹ÙÍøƽ̨-APP|ÏÂÔØ drugs into large scale trials. 

The BRC is closely tied with the NIHR BOBÌåÓýµÇ¼ÍøÖ·_Å·±¦ÌåÓý¹ÙÍøƽ̨-APP|ÏÂÔØ Clinical Research Facility (CRF), an extensive, dedicated space for early-stage clinical research in the heart of University Hospital BOBÌåÓýµÇ¼ÍøÖ·_Å·±¦ÌåÓý¹ÙÍøƽ̨-APP|ÏÂÔØ.
