  1. Human variation and adaptability

    Through the fields of palaeoanthropology, bioarchaeology, palaeogenetics, evolutionary genetics and human biology - we study human variation. Discover more about human variation and adaptability, the projects we are currently working on, read our papers, and meet the researchers.

  2. Face Lab

    Face Lab focuses on the digital creative agenda. Specifically, Face Lab explores faces and art-science applications.

  3. Behavioural Intervention for Opioid Reduction (BIOR)

    Welcome to the project site for the Behavioural Intervention for Opioid Reduction (BIOR). The resources collated here are freely available on the internet and will give you more information about chronic pain, how it is managed and user-led information on what can help.

  4. Shot Under the Volcano

    Shot Under the Volcano is a new multimedia installation by John Hyatt and the design agency, Uniform, at the Bluecoat and Sensor City inspired by Malcolm Lowry's 'Under the Volcano'.

  5. Galaxy formation and evolution

    The Galaxy Formation and Evolution Research Group looks at population studies of dwarf galaxies up to the most massive clusters of galaxies, supermassive black holes and detailed modelling of the internal structure of galaxies. Discover more about our expertise, who we work with and meet the researchers.

  6. Computational and theoretical galaxy formation

    The computational and theoretical galaxy formation group within the Astrophysics Research Institute uses state-of-the-art simulations on supercomputing facilities. Find out more about our research.

  7. Star formation and evolution and stellar populations

    By studying the gas and stars that shape the Milky Way as well as other galaxies in the local Universe, we can understand the life cycles of stars like our Sun, unravel the chemical enrichment history of the universe, and probe the existence of black holes across a wide mass spectrum.

  8. Artivism

    Artivism encapsulates artist practices that address social and political issues. Find out more about this research group.
