These words ring very true in 2016 as we approach the era of precision or stratified medicine. The precision or stratified medicine (we are going to use these terms interchangeably) is based on identifying subgroups of patients with distinct mechanisms of disease and particular responses to treatments.

  • Autumn 2014 – Issue 13
    AUTUMN 2014 – ISSUE 13 In this issue: Introduction from Professor Anna Dominiczak, Vice Principal and Head of College People Research news Teaching news Administration news Dates for your diary Events From Institutes From Schools Other news Your Newsletter needs you! Introduction from Professor Anna Dominiczak, Vice Principal and Head of College As the students return to us it is reassuring to know that the University achieved its best ever result in the National Student Survey this year. The University has seen our student satisfaction rate increase from 89% to 91%, representing the University's highest rating in the history of the NSS. Our College achieved the highest score for overall satisfaction of all four Colleges with an average score of 92.1%. Indeed, 100% student satisfaction rates were reported in: Dentistry; Molecular Biology, Biophysics and Biochemistry; and, Zoology. Following this success, the College also performed exceptionally well in the Times / Sunday Times league tables. Some notable highlights include: Dentistry and Nursing are both ranked top in the UK in their subject areas; Biological Sciences is ranked 6th out of 95; Medicine made a considerable leap up the league table to 12th (from 19th in 2013). The Times Higher Education World University Rankings have recently been published and show that this year the university has moved up to 94th from 117th. These excellent achievements are the result of the hard work and dedication shown by all staff across the College, and so I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank everyone, on behalf of the College Management Group, for your efforts.
