Research Focus

The Institute aims to conduct world-leading research that is socially responsive, locally relevant, and applicable internationally.

Our research integrates biological, social, mathematical, clinical and epidemiological fundamental science to take innovations forward using our world leading translation science and topic expertise.

Research is focussed within five programmes:

    1. Common Infections and Antibiotic Resistance
    2. Behavioural Medicine
    3. Early Years
    4. Healthy Places
    5. Healthy Ageing

Collaboration and funding

There are 42 research projects currently in progress with a total funding value of over £23M. The Institute is interested in discussing collaborations to develop evaluate interventions to improve health and address inequalities for the benefits of patients and society.

Training and studentships

There are currently 25 PhD students and 33 Master of Public Health students based within the Institute. We endeavour to channel funding in the creation of additional studentships, and also in the support and development of our students.
