Our research is divided into four broad themes: Agriculture, Food & Health; Environment; Heritage & Creativity; and Prosperity & Resilience. The themes are open-ended and overlapping, crossing traditional boundaries and allowing us to nurture innovation and deliver impactful and curiosity-driven research. Under these themes sit our 30 research divisions.
