The University of Edinburgh’s College of Medicine & Veterinary Medicine is an international leader in basic-to-clinical translational research. The College's research ranges from bench to bedside and from process to population. Research themes are: genes and populations, normal and diseased cells and inflammation and tissue repair.
The University is one of the oldest centres for medical and veterinary medical research in the UK. It is also one of the most dynamic and progressive, with state of the art facilities across the College. The 2014 Research Excellence Framework (REF) results reaffirmed the College’s reputation as one of the world’s leading centres of medical and veterinary medical research.

Polygenic risk scores and GWAS summary statistics for an analysis of the contribution of common risk variants to multiple sclerosis in Orkney and Shetland
Orkney and Shetland, the population isolates which make up the Northern Isles of Scotland, are of particular interest to multiple sclerosis (MS) research. While MS prevalence is high in Scotland, Orkney has the highest ... -
Average male and female mouse brain TSPO atlases, generated using TSPO PET radiotracer [18F]LW223 (normalised to injected dose)
[18F]LW223 is a novel Positron Emission Tomography (PET) radiotracer which can be used to detetect 18kDa translocator protein (TSPO) distribution in vivo. Murine brain TSPO atlases were generated using average SUV at 90-120 ... -
GWAMA summary data for morning plasma cortisol from the Cortisol Network (CORNET) Consortium 2021 (n=25,314)
The stress hormone cortisol modulates fuel metabolism, cardiovascular homoeostasis, mood, inflammation and cognition. The CORtisol NETwork (CORNET) consortium previously identified a single locus associated with morning ... -
