Research
All staff are members of the Biomolecular Sciences Research Centre (BMRC) which has an international reputation for the quality of its research. Our staff collaborate with other researchers locally, nationally and internationally.
Areas of research include
- health and disease mechanisms
- cancer
- molecular microbiology
- tissue engineering and biomechanics
- mass spectrometry imaging
- bioanalytical science
- chemistry
- education and outreach
As well as our academic researchers, the BMRC has a number of postdoctoral research assistants and a community of MPhil and PhD students.
Over 60% of staff produce outputs that are considered world leading or internationally excellent or recognised internationally. Our multidisciplinary team of academic staff embed this research into their teaching meaning that our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes reflect the very latest thinking. Students have the opportunity to work alongside our researchers during their own research projects which form part of their studies.
