College of Life Sciences
"With more than 1100 staff and research students and external funding of around £60 million per year, the College of Life Sciences is one of the largest and most productive research institutes in Europe. Our reputation is genuinely global and is reflected in the fact that researchers in our laboratories represent no fewer than 62 different nationalities. Yet Dundee is no ivory tower. Our research is having a major impact on the economy of Tayside by stimulating the regional biotechnology industry which currently accounts for 16% of the local economy.

EASTBIO BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnership
EASTBIO - the BBSRC East of Scotland Bioscience Doctoral Training Partnership - is a partnership between the Universities of Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and St Andrews; the Scottish Universities Life Sciences Alliance (SULSA); and the Scottish Universities Physics Alliance (SUPA). The Partnership was created in response to the establishment of BBSRC Doctoral Training Partnerships (DTP) to provide PhD training in areas of strategic relevance to UK Bioscience and has been selected by the BBSRC as the largest of its 14 UK Doctoral Training Partnerships. The DTP scheme will provide students with excellent cross-disciplinary research training in line with the current BBSRC strategy for research support and training
