The Challenge

Biomedical science applies biological principles to medicine. It explores the physiological processes and functions of the human body to appreciate disease processes, diagnosis and treatment.

Our world-leading research aims to bring together academics and health professionals to quickly translate our work into tangible benefits for patients.

The Approach

We wish to understand the biological processes that underpin healthy ageing, to develop strategies to prevent disease and deterioration, associated with ageing, that lead to new therapeutic treatments.

Operating Department Practice 800x450

OUR AIMS

  • To improve the diagnosis and treatment of disease
  • To understand the causes of disease and how we might prevent them
  • To develop new therapies for the treatment of disease
  • To understand the biological processes of ageing
  • To develop strategies to promote healthy ageing, while preventing deterioration and disease
