If you want to further your research in Pharmacy, Pharmacology and Biomedical Sciences, Portsmouth is the ideal place to continue your journey. Our Pharmacy, Pharmacology and Biomedical Sciences research focuses on growing our understanding of how the body functions in health, how it malfunctions in disease, and the genetic and molecular drivers of physical and mental illnesses. We're researching the molecular, cellular, physiological and behavioural processes occurring in the body at times of health and disease. We're identifying and characterising the biomarkers of disease, and helping develop new drugs from initial discovery to clinical application with our partners in industry. Much of our research takes place at the Institute of Biological and Biomedical Sciences (IBBS). Some of our successful projects at IBBS include researching microporous materials for environmental and drug delivery, sperm freezing to reduce the use of animals in research, and developing endoscopy methods and training to improve patient outcomes. 100 percent of our impact case studies in the area of Allied Health Professions, Dentistry, Nursing and Pharmacy were rated as very considerable in terms of their reach and significance in the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF 2021).<br>MPhil option available.
