For over 500 years, innovative researchers here at the University of Aberdeen have made medical advances which have dramatically changed and improved the lives of people around the world.
The next medical breakthrough could happen at any moment, and you could help make that breakthrough a reality. You can be an innovator, by making a donation to the Medical Innovation Fund. It’s only with your support that the University of Aberdeen can lead the way in medical research and education.
Important advances in medical research don’t happen because of one person, but many people working together as a team. You can be part of that team by supporting medical innovation. Will you support our students and researchers by making a gift today?
Since 1497, the School of Medicine at Aberdeen (now known as the School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition) has made medical advances that have dramatically changed and improved the lives of people around the world.
