Summary
The School of Cellular and Molecular Medicine is an internationally recognised centre of excellence for the study of cancer biology, infection and immunology, and regenerative medicine.
Ongoing refurbishment of our immunology, microbiology, virology, regenerative medicine and cancer research laboratories has created an outstanding working environment with state-of-the-art facilities. Researchers in the school also have access to facilities within the Faculty of Life Sciences, for example the Molecular Recognition Centre and Cell Imaging, Proteomics and Wolfson Bioimaging Facility.
Staff research interests include:
-
childhood and adult cancers
-
regenerative medicine
-
molecular genetics
-
developmental biology
-
haematological disorders
-
immunology
-
virology
-
bacterial antibiotic resistance
-
bacterial pathogenesis.
The school combines basic research with a focus on translation, in other words turning basic scientific discoveries into something that is clinically useful. Key successes of this type include the development of novel drugs, therapies and diagnostic tests, and the implementation of changes to clinical practice. Several members of staff in the school are clinicians.
We have a list of pre-defined research projects available for the MSc by Research.
