Designing and carrying out the bioscientific research that provides the evidence base for health policy and practice, Swansea University's researchers are actively contributing to improvements in services for patients and practitioners alike. Currently, students are exploring the anti-fungal properties of maggot secretions and the antimicrobial properties of invertebrates, and the physiological effects of a cardiac rehabilitation program on myocardial infarction patients in Kuwait. As a student at Swansea's College of Human and Health Sciences, students will benefit from a dynamic and supportive research environment with many opportunities to make connections across disciplines and develop links with organizations and policymakers both in the UK and abroad. As such, students can be confident that their research will inform and be informed by the wider healthcare environment. According to the most recent Research Excellence Framework in 2014-2021, over 75% of the research carried out at the college was of international or world-leading quality.
