Research in the School
In recent decades the world has witnessed an explosion of technological advances that have opened new frontiers and changed the face of medical and pharmaceutical research. It is in this context that UniSA’s School of Pharmacy and Medical Sciences has established an international reputation for high quality research aimed at optimising human health.
Our staff and postgraduate students contribute to a vast array of scientific study that is helping find solutions to the big health challenges facing our planet.
From cancer treatment to health policy and education, nutrition to infectious disease, DNA and gene technology to complementary therapies, our researchers’ interests are many and varied, but what all share is a spirit of cooperation and a desire to improve human health through innovative, outcomes-based research.
- The Sansom Institute incorporates all of the research undertaken in the School, bringing together a diverse range of scientific scholars with many decades of experience, under four main research sectors.
- Our research degrees offer students the opportunity to pursue cutting-edge scientific research in a modern, well-equipped and supportive environment.
