Creating a healthier population

Our research is improving patient care, establishing new treatments for global diseases and improving access to essential nutrition.

Promoting health case studies

Here are just a few examples of the work we're doing to promote health.

Treating fungal disease globally

We're improving patient outcomes from Aspergillus disease.

Tackling groundwater arsenic in India

We're helping to understand, and find solutions to, groundwater arsenic and health inequalities.

Tackling cardiovascular disease

We're helping to extend life expectancy and improve public health.

Removing harmful pollutants

We've developed an electrochemical process that has dramatically reduced wastewater pollution levels.

Getting to the root of our poor soil

We've established novel approaches to repair soil systems, and helped them grow back greener.

Supporting artists from conflict zones

We’re mobilising, empowering and connecting people living in some of the world’s toughest environments.

Sustainability through group farming

Our research shows how group farming initiatives can provide a sustainable livelihood.
