Overview:

• Excellent facilities, cutting edge technology and international collaborations underpin our research which focuses on four key areas:
• Development, Regeneration, Repair, Tissue Engineering: Centre for Craniofacial & Regenerative Biology
• Immunity, Infection, Host-Microbe Interactions: Centre for Host-Microbiome Interactions
• Clinical, Translational, Population Health: Centre for Oral, Clinical & Translational Sciences
• Dental Education: Centre for Dental Education

Course study environment:

All research students are appointed two supervisors at registration to guide them through their research project. Students belong to one of three research Centres which provides interaction with academic staff and other students in the same discipline. The research Centres organise seminars and journal clubs and student participation is expected. The students organise their own science club and are in charge of their own postgraduate room. The research atmosphere is friendly, encouraging and positive, and the success rate is high. All students are allocated a Postgraduate Coordinator (PGC) in addition to the two supervisors. The PGC will provide additional support and will review the student's progress in accordance with the timetable for full-time or part-time students.
