Biomedical Sciences
Warwick Biomedical Sciences is a vibrant, inclusive community driving world-class research, training, and education. Supported by expert professional services, technical and Health & Safety teams across Gibbet Hill and UHCW, we thrive on collaboration and innovation.
Our researchers tackle a range of complex scientific challenges. Our work includes uncovering the cellular errors linked to cancer and developmental syndromes, exploring cellular 'railway networks' and investigating the role of cell components in genetic and infectious diseases. In Women’s Health, we are leading the first Phase 1 trial of a macrophage-targeted therapy for endometriosis and pioneering personalised treatments for recurrent pregnancy loss.
If you are interested in knowing more or joining our team please do get in touch - we look forward to hearing from you.
Inspired minds, inspired places
The Biomedical Sciences Directorate (BMS) has a vision to build world-class Discovery Science and Translational Medicine programmes in partnership with the University Hospital Coventry & Warwickshire (UHCW); deliver interdisciplinary educational programmes; and transmit new knowledge to the wider world through an exciting public engagement interface.
Home to over 40 Principal Investigators, including clinical and non-clinical academics, BMS has several joint appointments with other departments to drive interdisciplinary work.
Leading edge research centres and programmes
Our Principal Investigators lead key University-wide research centres, externally supported research programmes and innovative education initiatives:
