Our research

The Department of Anaesthesiology has a diverse range of research programmes.

Our research ranges from the clinical assessment of novel drugs, through to the use of simulation as a tool for analysing error in anaesthesia. Staff involved in research include clinicians, scientists, research coordinators and postgraduate students. 

Masters and PhD students work under the supervision of staff in the department. The research being conducted by postgraduate students ranges from clinical studies of the effects of drugs used during anaesthesia through to investigation of the performance of anaesthetists and the modelling of the EEG and sleep.
