Course Description |
Research in the School of Biosciences encompasses four broad themes and is supported by a core group of researchersin bioactive compounds (Drug Discovery & Development Team):
Infectious Diseases
Non-communicable Diseases
Environmental Research
Food Science and Nutrition
These areas are important because they address pertinent issues in human health and sustainability. Current work emphasises fundamental research activities that will allow a better understanding of cancer, infectious diseases and lifestyle diseases via the use of molecular and cellular biology techniques. This will be complemented with research in bioactive natural products, particularly for medicinal and nutraceutical uses to treat and prevent diseases. Ultimately, the main goal is to improve human health and identify affordable alternative therapies. Environmental research will focus on developing mechanisms to save energy resources and use biological indicators to monitor and detect the source of microbial contaminants in our water and food systems.
