The Department has a wide ranging and innovatory set of research projects on non-communicable diseases that address many important scientific and public health issues around the world. While epidemiology is the core discipline, we work with statisticians, clinicians, sociologists, demographers and basic biological scientists. Most of our research involves extensive collaborations both across the School and with colleagues in other research institutions around the UK and overseas.
