Biomedical Sciences
Inspired minds, inspired places
The Division of Biomedical Sciences has a vision to conduct world-class fundamental discovery and translational science, deliver interdisciplinary educational programmes and transmit new knowledge to the wider world through an exciting public engagement interface.
Our 40 principal investigators work in three broad research programmes:
Leading edge research centres and facilities
The Division's principal investigators lead key University-wide and/or externally supported research centres and educational programmes:
- Tommy's National Miscarriage Centre
- Centre for Mechanochemical Cell Biology
- MRC Doctoral Training Partnership - Interdisciplinary Biomedical Research
These centres aim to deliver state-of-the-art technologies and drive interdisciplinary research.
Events and seminars

Cell freezing (cryopreservation) – which is essential in cell transfusions as well as basic biomedical research – can be dramatically improved using a new polymeric cryoprotectant, discovered by researchers at WMS and the Department of Chemistry.
Siobhan Quenby, Professor of Obstetrics, tells us about her research into recurrent miscarriage and the importance of helping women before they become pregnant.
