Research Centres and Facilities
We address key questions about how animals are structured and how they move, how movement is controlled and what limits performance.
Our researchers strive for a better understanding of the diseases which affect both humans and animals through population studies.
Clinical trials help us to gain a better understanding of diseases which affect animals and ways in which we can improve animal health and welfare.
Welfare concerns the mind as well as the body. Through research the RVC strives to ensure animals are contented, interested in life and performing well.
Our research centres bring together scientists with similar needs and interests. Research group leaders are experienced scientists who act as mentors and encourage collaboration across different subject areas.
The College has particular strengths in veterinary epidemiology, whole animal physiology, comparative pathology, public health, immunology, protozoology and medicine. We also have expertise in agricultural economics and are working towards building our expertise in mathematical biology.
