Access research expertise

At Bristol, we are working at the frontiers of research - much of it is carried out in a highly collaborative way and co-created with partners. This is what turns world-leading research into world-changing impact.

Find a researcher

The research portal is our definitive research information source, allowing you to view information about our researchers and their projects, activities and publications.

The University's three Faculties work across disciplines and drive pioneering discoveries, technological advancements and new ways of thinking. Our Research Institutes are centres of excellence that reflect Bristol's strength and depth in key specialisms and draw together thematic, multidisciplinary research spanning the breadth of our University. 

Combining our research with the expertise and reach of partners, we can drive societal, environmental and economic benefit. Our research will not only help your organisation thrive but together, we can shape the future. 

Access funding

As an academic institution, we access funding from public bodies and charitable trusts to push forward research in important areas - very often, this is done in collaboration with our partners.

We also have schemes to support priority areas such as encouraging innovation, diversity and helping small organisations to engage with us.

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI)

UKRI brings together the seven Research Councils, Innovate UK and Research England. The UKRI website has useful information about their work and upcoming funding calls.
