Our clinical and health services research facilities are set alongside a suite of five modern laboratories which support routine mammalian cell culture, biochemistry, molecular biology and stromal cell work to facilitate translational research. Health services research is led by Dr Rachael Gooberman-Hill. Laboratory based work is led by Dr Patrick Case.
