Integrative Mammalian Biology A partnership between biomedical scientists at the Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde has attracted £3m in funding from the BBSRC, BPS, HEFCE, KTN, MRC and SFC to build capacity and support leading integrative mammalian biology teaching and research. Integrative mammalian biology is the study of how the body functions at a whole animal level and is central to development of new therapeutic approaches to human and animal diseases. It is our aim to build capacity in in vivo research at undergraduate and postgraduate level and through the provision of specialised summer schools covering cardiovascular, neuroscience and immunology techniques while encouraging and developing industrial links. An overview of ongoing research and associated animal models of disease, methodologies and technologies available are listed under three broad research areas: cardiovascular, neuroscience and immunology.
