Research Centre for Optimal Health

About the centre

The Research Centre for Optimal Health (ReCOH) was established to deepen our understanding of the lifestyle-induced accelerated ageing process and to use this knowledge to deliver practical solutions to achieve optimal health throughout adult life. 

Research groups associated with the Research Centre for Optimal Health include the Cancer Mechanisms and Biomarkers research group, the Genomics and Infectious Diseases research group, the Health Data Science research group and the Medicines Diagnostics and Disease Modelling research group
