Molecular Genetic and Lifecourse Epidemiology 

It is our ambition that the 4-year PhD programme in Molecular, Genetic and Lifecourse Epidemiology will be a pioneer in developing and sharing best practice for supporting and training PhD students in population health sciences. We will recruit, train and support the next generation of professional leaders in this field, giving them a strong interdisciplinary foundation. They will be advocates of robust, reproducible research. We will continue to refine a student-led PhD journey that meets the needs of the student body and supervisors. 

Population Health Sciences at Bristol University has a focus on methodological innovation tightly linked to the applied research of population and public health benefit, in a culture of open, intellectually generous, scientific endeavour. This, alongside the strong institutional support and infrastructure will allow us to realise our vision of delivering outstanding postgraduate research training in partnership with Wellcome.
