The Disciplinary Domain

The faculties of medicine and pharmacy constitute about one third of Uppsala University and are among the 60 best in the world in life sciences.

About the Disciplinary Domain

The Disciplinary Domain of Medicine and Pharmacy comprises two faculties – Medicine and Pharmacy, 10 departments and 13 research centres. We conduct research with both breadth and edge. Many projects are run in close collaboration with the industry, community and Uppsala University Hospital.

One of Uppsala University’s scientific areas of strength is Life Science. We are ranked among the top 40 in the world in the area. It is a recognition that makes us proud but not yet satisfied. Here we present a selection of our ongoing operations.

Welcome to the Disciplinary Domain of Medicine and Pharmacy.
