Overview
Laboratory research is based mainly on the University campus in the Henry Wellcome Laboratory of Molecular & Cellular Gastroenterology . We also conduct clinical research and trials at the Royal Liverpool & Broadgreen University Hospital.
Key Features
- The focus of the Gastroenterology programme from University of Liverpool is on “translational” research: taking advances in basic medical research out of the laboratory and into the hospital clinic ‘from the bench to bedside’. This involves a whole range of experimental techniques, from mechanistic studies involving cell-lines through to patient studies and clinical trials.
Facilities
- The research infrastructure of the Institute of Translational Medicine is designed to give researchers access to world class facilities in the best possible environment.
- The centres, facilities and resources give us the ability to drive biomedical research from patient samples to the laboratory bench and vice versa from newly generated drug compounds into clinical trials. They provide powerful, productive collaborations between experts within the University and organisations worldwide.
