Our centre is divided into three research themes focusing on translational research from discovery bioscience to clinical application.

To enable this we have a modern laboratory facility and are optimally located close to the Norwich Research Park institutes and the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.

Our research environment encompasses broad interdisciplinary skills and a strong postgraduate research programme.
