The departments within Pathology are involved in research, method development and clinical trials, and welcome suggestions for collaboration from academic and clinical colleagues.
The departments are also active in teaching BSMS medical students, and have a long history of training Biomedical Scientists, Clinical Scientists and Specialist Registrars. Some past BSc, MSc, PhD and MRCPath projects and theses are listed below (click here).
