Welcome to postgraduate research in the School of Medicine

Welcome to the School of Medicine. We have a vibrant postgraduate student community and I am confident that your studies here will be both stimulating and challenging.

We have delivered medicine programmes at Nottingham for more than 50 years and for 20 years at the Derby site. This heritage provides a wealth of academic expertise for postgraduate research. We have extensive links with some of the largest and most comprehensive hospitals in the country, a network of excellent NHS Trusts, our NIHR Biomedical Research Centre, and international campuses, all of which provide an ideal research environment.

Similarly, we have partnerships with the best universities in the world and the pharmaceutical industry, creating unparalleled opportunities for our research students.

Here at Nottingham, we're also very proud of the student support networks. They ensure that you are supported through your student journey and complete your studies on time. We encourage you to make good use of your supervisors, the Postgraduate Student Advisors, PGR Support Groups, School Mentorship Programme, your fellow students and the Researcher Academy.

As you conduct your studies, you will benefit from the stimulating environment in the School of Medicine and will be supported by a comprehensive training programme to develop and broaden your research skills.

Finally, you're an important member of the School of Medicine research community and I wish you every success with your studies.

 Dr Lorraine Pinnington, Director of Doctoral Programmes, School of Medicine
