With the honour of 12 Nobel Laureates over its long and distinguished history, the Division is consistently at the forefront of innovative and lifesaving science. Our researchers work across the full range of biomedical and clinical sciences, from the molecule to large population studies.

It also has world-leading research programmes in cardiovascular diseases, musculoskeletal disorders such as arthritis and osteoporosis and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Medical education and training run hand in hand with research – not only training students who will go on to be clinicians but, equally importantly, teachers and academics.
