Centre for Health, Humanities and Science
Our vision is to be recognised as a leader in interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research at the intersection of humanities, medicine, health and science.
Our aims are to:
- develop those areas in which our research stands out in the UK and internationally;
- consolidate these strengths and make them more visible;
- achieve a step-change in the work done in these areas at the University.
