Biosciences Research
Our aim is to understand life at the level of molecules, cells and organisms.
Our Impact
Collaboration with clinical and industrial partners has resulted in the application of our research through the creation of spin out companies and societal impact cases in many areas of the biosciences discipline.
Research themes
Researchers in the Institute work collaboratively across a range of 20 Faculty Research Themes.
Our Research Themes within FMS are examples of how collaborative, dynamic research environments with access to cutting-edge technologies, help to drive discoveries for the benefit of human health and wellbeing
Many of our researchers are members of one of our world-leading research centres. These include:
- Centre for Bacterial Cell Biology
- Mitochondrial Research Group
- Newcastle Structural Biology Lab
Centres of Research Excellence
The University has established the Newcastle University Centres of Research Excellence (NUCoREs), which encourage interdisciplinary research networks. NUCoREs link our scientists to other faculties, NHS colleagues and patients, to local and national research structures, industry and businesses. NUBI staff are currently members of:
