Our multidisciplinary team of clinical and research scientists tackle many key public health and health care issues facing high and low income countries, such as obesity, AIDS, mental illness, child health, cancer detection and treatment using epidemiological, statistical and social science methods. Many of our academics provide health policy advice to government and international bodies and work in partnership with colleagues in India, Chile, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Norway, Belarus, Australia, Denmark, Taiwan and the USA.

There are several major research themes and research projects within the school. Most notable of these are the MRC Centre for Causal Analyses in Translational Epidemiology (CAiTE) and the world-renowned Children of the 90s study.

The school is also a member of the NIHR School for Primary Care Research and the NIHR School for Public Health.
