Biomedical Centre

Here at Biomedical Centre (BMC), experimental medical research with a clinical orientation is being conducted. BMC is almost wall to wall with Skåne University Hospital in Lund, which makes the distances, between the clinic, the laboratory and back to the clinic, short, not only in thought but also physically. Within walking distance you will also find the Faculty of Science, Faculty of Engineering (LTH), Ideon Science Park and a large number of pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies.

The premises covers an area of approximately 50 000 square meters and there are about 170 research groups at BMC who are involved in research in the medical field. At BMC education is offered at undergraduate level, master programmes and PhD programmes.

At BMC you will find the Faculty Office as well as five departments:

• Department of Clinical Sciences, Lund
• Department of Clinical Sciences, Malmö
• Department of Experimental Medical Science
• Department of Laboratory Medicine
• Department of Translational Medicine

In total at BMC there are over 1700 researchers, doctoral students and technical/administrative staff.
