Psychology has a thriving and vibrant research culture and outstanding teaching and research facilities. Within the school, the Research Centre for Brain and Behaviour https://www.ljmu.ac.uk/research/centres-and-institutes/research-centre-for-brain-and-behaviour brings our research together under four main themes: Neuroscience, Health and Wellbeing, Forensic Psychology and Cognition, Education and Language. Within these themes, staff currently hold substantial research grants from funders including Euro EU Chanse, Wellcome, NIHR, ESRC, BA, NHS Trusts, and a range of charitable organisations. Due to our continued success, we have submitted over 42 FTE staff to REF2021, increased our Research Power (from 27 in 2014 to 76 in 2021) and were ranked 37 out of 93 Institutions for Research Power. In the last National Student Survey, we scored above the benchmark for all themes and saw an increase in our ranking across all major league tables, including The Times, Guardian, and Good University Guide.
