Our research involves cross-disciplinary collaborations between researchers based within the School of Veterinary Science and other scientists including biologists, epidemiologists, mathematicians, health economists and social scientists. 

We produce high quality, impactful, internationally recognised science that benefits the health and wellbeing of animals and which is integrated within our veterinary undergraduate and postgraduate teaching.

We have access to state-of-the-art- research facilities and use cutting-edge technologies and develop novel innovations to monitor animal health and detect disease at the earliest possible stage.

We have a vibrant and active research community providing multiple opportunities for us to train the next generation of research scientists.
