Overview
Along with The Roslin Institute, which is incorporated with the School, our research spans all aspects of veterinary medicine, from molecules and genes through to animal and human populations.
The School, along with The Roslin Institute, aims to make a real difference to animal and human health and our partnership with the Medical School is summed up in the ethos - One Health.
We place a major emphasis on conducting high quality research and attracting world-class talent.
Our research focuses on:
- the improvement of health and welfare of domestic animal species;
- the protection of public health;
- alleviation of human poverty (in the context of tropical diseases).
- providing holistic solutions to global challenges in human and veterinary medicine and the livestock industry.
