Welcome to the Centre for Translational & Interdisciplinary Research

the vision

The core aim of the Centre for Translational and Interdisciplinary Research (CTIR) is to create a new building that will bring experimentalists into juxtaposition with mathematical, biophysical and computational biology. The CTIR will break down the barriers between the scientific disciplines to facilitate innovative translation of biological and drug discovery research into new therapeutics.
