Introduction, goals and mission

The Biomedical Research and Innovation Centre (BRIC) brings together a vibrant and collaborative community of scientists to address critical challenges faced by society. Our research spans fundamental and applied aspects of bioscience research across a number of broad themes. We aim to deliver world-class, interdisciplinary research which benefits people’s lives.

BRIC is located within the School of Science Engineering and Environment (SEE) in the University of Salford. We work closely with commercial, academic, and healthcare partners across local, national, and international regions, including Europe, Asia, Africa and other parts of the world. We welcome new partners to join us.

Currently, the research in BRIC has three established areas of research – Cancer Disease, Diagnostics and therapies, Cardio-Respiratory Physiology, Novel therapies and Diagnostic tools, Ageing and Dementia and Microbial Communities. All these areas benefit from inter-disciplinary collaborations with chemists who are also part of BRIC as well as collaborations with colleagues from data and health sciences and a commitment to science communication.
