Biomedical Sciences
Our research programme in Translational and Experimental Medicine integrates laboratory-based biologists, chemists, engineers and clinicians with computer-based mathematicians, statisticians and data analysts to exploit knowledge derived from fundamental discovery science to develop novel or innovative drugs, devices, techniques and treatments and to provide public health advice for improving the clinical outcomes for patients. The work of the unit is particularly focused on reproductive medicine, metabolic disease and on novel cancer therapy and delivery systems.
