Researching the biggest issues facing our planet
Share
Our research in animal science, ecology and environment, microbiology, plant science, nutrition, biochemistry and molecular biology is shaping new approaches to address a range of important challenges faced by the world.
Our research clusters
Animal science research
Our animal science research cluster includes animal behaviour and ecophysiology, animal production and welfare, genetics and genomics and more.
Biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology research
Our research in this area covers biochemistry and metabolism, molecular biology and biotechnology and other sub themes.
Ecology, evolution and environment research
Evolutionary theory provides practical insights into how biota adapt or fail to adapt to environmental change, why organisms behave the way they do, and allows us to map evolutionary changes.
Microbiology research
Bacteria, fungi, viruses and protists are involved in processes that underpin our ecosystems, cause health and disease, and result in useful products ranging from beer to biofuels.
Nutrition and dietetics research
Nutrition and dietetics includes the study of the food that people eat and its effects on wellbeing and on prevention and management of disease.
Plant sciences research
Our research covers the full range of plant sciences, from molecular biology and plant physiology, though to the interactions of natural and managed plant communities with their biotic and abiotic environments.
