Molecular, Genetic and Population Health Sciences makes a major contribution to the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine's REF Success.
The College again achieved an outstanding UK research assessment outcome by the key comparators - research quality, research power (quality x volume) and ranking relative to other UK higher education institutions (HEIs). Research power is the globally recognised determinant of research reputation, and within the UK ultimately influences recurrent funding to HEIs by Higher Education Funding Councils.
