Molecular and Cellular Medicine

Biomedical research in the Department focuses on cancer biology, the role vesicle trafficking in health and disease, parasitology, immunology and neuroscience, with several of these projects in close collaboration with the Hull York Medical School.

Important overarching themes include exploitation of advanced imaging and post-genomics technologies, and increasingly close links to application, through NHS and industrial collaborations and spin out companies, in areas such as embryo health, tissue engineering and vaccine development.
