The complexity of the biological problem at the molecular level necessitates a highly interdisciplinary approach, in which analytical techniques from the physical sciences are applied to solve biological problems. The foundation for this approach is the major central facilities of the School of Biological Sciences and the collegiate character of the University, and indispensable ingredient for interdisciplinary research. ÊResearch projects flow freely within the Facilities of the School of Biological Sciences and within the orbit of the virtual LINSET. Particularly strong links exist with the Departments of Chemistry, Physics, and within the Faculty of Medicine with the Schools of Clinical Sciences, and of Reproductive and Developmental Medicine. Further afield, Proteoglycans NorthWest (PgsNoW) groups seventeen major research groups in the North West of England and provides a major forum for collaboration between the major research Universities in the region.
