About Us

St George's, University of London is the UK's only independent medical and healthcare higher education institution. St George's is a modern, innovative academic and research organisation built upon a rich history stretching back 250 years. Alumni include John Hunter, known as the father of modern surgery, and Edward Jenner, creator of the first vaccine, used to eradicate smallpox.

We share a site with St George's Hospital, one of the UK's largest teaching hospitals. Our smaller size lends a genuine community feel - students and staff can walk the corridors of our facilities from clinical teaching room to laboratory to hospital ward or clinic. As testament to this we were voted London's best student experience for two years in a row in the Times Higher Education Student Experience Survey.

Research work at St George's is focused within three research institutes – Cardiovascular and Cell Sciences, Infection and Immunity and Population Health. We aim to improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease in areas including infection and immunity, heart disease and stroke, and cell signalling. We also focus on enhancing understanding of public health and epidemiology, clinical genetics, and social care sciences.
