Our laboratory facilities reflect the full breadth of the department’s teaching and research activities.  We teach in large modern, well- equipped laboratories with audio-visual facilities to enhance our ability to demonstrate techniques or interesting observations.

Some facilities are organised and into specialist areas:

• Genomic, proteomic and metabolomics profiling Illumina - MiSeq Next generation sequencing, Q Exactive Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer, 2D protein electrophoresis Dionex UltiMate 3000 nanoflow liquid chromatography/Bruker HCT Ultra 
• Forensic genetics - single cell and low template DNA amplification lab, capillary, MiSeq Next generation sequencing. 
• Microbiology and molecular biology - fully equipped for molecular biology manipulations and imaging, RT-PCR, pilot scale bioreactors 
• Automated clinical analysis - Randox Daytona Clinical Chemistry Analyser, Sysmex Haematology analyser 
• Anatomy, histology and microscopy - dissection area, Cryostat microtome, automated histopathological processing & staining, light and fluorescence microscopy suite.
