At UCL, we strive to expand our understanding of the world around us through research, and maximise the impact of that research to the benefit of humanity.
As an academic community we value the connections we make: across disciplines, across countries, and across communities. We believe that when we come together we can generate unique insights and world-leading research into complex global problems.
The challenges we face in the future – from climate change to disease and inequality – will not be confined to one country alone, and cannot be solved in isolation. Through inspiring research leaders and nurturing cross-disciplinary research, including through the Research Domains and Grand Challenges, we will strive to help future generations live fair, healthy and rewarding lives.
Professor David Price, UCL Vice-Provost (Research)
