The NHC was founded in conversation with, and for the bioindustry, to discover diseases earlier, develop novel treatments, and deliver life changing medicines to those in need, quicker, safer and more affordably.
Through our delivery model of research, partnerships and training, we bring together industry, academia, talent and world-class facilities to create real-world impact.
With funding from the Tees Valley Combined Authority and the European Regional Development Fund, we are building on the region's rich heritage of research and development to accelerate innovation across the UK and internationally, boosting both the regional and national economy.

To be the partner of choice for collaborative research and industry-relevant training for the biosciences and healthcare sector.
DISEASE-SPECIFIC RESEARCH
to understand the underlying biology of diseases, discovering them earlier in patients, and developing novel therapeutic treatments.
BIOMANUFACTURING AND BIOTECHNOLOGY
to develop new approaches to and optimise biotherapeutics, delivering treatments to patients faster, safer and more affordably.
DIGITAL ANALYTICS AND MACHINE LEARNING
using bioinformatics, image analysis, modelling, virtual and augmented reality, to support the discovery, development and delivery of life changing medicines.
Our cutting-edge technologies and facilities provide a world-class resource for research and training.
From our co-creation spaces, to our state-of-the-art laboratories and computing suites, we provide our researchers, students and industry partners with all the tools needed to innovate in the biosciences and healthcare sector.
Our world-class research community includes management, academics, PhD students and postdoctoral fellows. Our research teams are leaders in their fields, developing basic and applied research to advance the biosciences and healthcare sector.
