Translational Health Sciences

University of Bristol has opted into the TEF and received a Silver award.

Translational Health Sciences is part of the Bristol Medical School. Staff and students are based in high-quality research and clinical settings across the city, including the Bristol Royal Infirmary, Southmead Hospital and the advanced laboratory facilities in the Dorothy Hodgkin Building. The school undertakes laboratory-based, translational and applied research, fostering a high level of collaboration between staff and students. It comprises a mix of basic and medically trained scientists, enabling high-quality collaborative translational and healthcare research using a wide range of techniques - from molecular biology to epidemiology.Our work focuses on clinical research and a significant part of this has translated to clinical trials that are led by the school. These include ongoing trials related to:

• cardiac surgery
• uveitis
• childhood vaccination and anti-microbial therapy
• treatment of obesity in childhood and adult life
• therapies for diabetic neuropathy
• treatment of early Alzheimer's disease
• neurosurgical approaches to Parkinson's disease
• immunotherapy and bone marrow stem cell therapy in multiple sclerosis
• interventions for treatment of neonatal brain injury
• type 1 diabetes prevention
• improvement of outcomes from joint replacement
• novel methods of glucocorticoid treatment in critical illness and inflammatory disorders
• treatment of nephrotic syndrome
• management of pleural disease.

These studies are complemented by translational clinical studies, engaging both clinical and basic scientists.Extensive national and international research collaborations contribute to a first-class working environment in which to undertake interdisciplinary research and teaching.

There is a wealth of information and assistance available for international students that start from the point of thinking about attending Bristol. The website has a range of country-specific information as well as general information about the application process. The university also takes part in the Erasmus program and has specific information about it. The International Office is available once students arrive at the university to help with matter such as visas and immigration paperwork and English language studies. This is ideal for those to whom English isn't a first language. They can even help with students seeking work between their studies and for those seeking work after their courses are finishing. The Student Union at the university is found in Queen's Road and is a founding member of the National Union of Students, meaning it is one of the oldest in the country. There are around 300 different clubs and societies to become involved with outside the classroom so there is always something for all tastes. There are volunteering opportunities as well as fundraising groups and those involved with sports. For less formal settings, there are also get active clubs and get green societies. As well as the many organisations and clubs on offer, the union is also responsible for the two student media outlets, the radio station and newspaper. It organises the annual fresher's fair as well as various community groups and large entertainment events.
