Biomedical and life sciences

From psychology to medicine, our impact continues to reach far beyond the journals in which it is published.

We take an integrated approach to all aspects of health and bioscientific research. Internationally respected results have been achieved at all stages of the medical research process, from laboratory science through drug development to major clinical trials. This "bench to bedside" strategy is embodied in two of our flagship Research Institutes.
