Our Current Projects

Interface

Interface is our exciting new psychological research programme, which focuses on investigating aspects of group psychology, participation and inter-personal interaction. Building on years of research in this area, the Fischer Institute believes that further study of human social interaction in a variety of group participation situations will lead to important discoveries about the psychology of social structures and institutions.

Part-funded by the ESRC and the BMJ, Interface is currently in its early testing phases. In the future, the institute hopes to develop applications from this research that will aid social development and cohesion programmes throughout the UK.

At the moment, the Fischer Institute is looking for volunteers to participate in our first wave of research and testing. For further details and to sign up to participate in the programme, please read more.

Corinthian

Corinthian is our ongoing immuno-vaccine research programme. Funded by the BMC and NHS, Corinthian is a well established research programme that has already produced fruitful results. Our specialists have already helped to develop vital vaccines against swine-flu and winter-flu, which are now routinely used across the UK. We are also developing a number of vaccines for use in the developing world.

Phlegethen

This is the institute's newest bio-medical research project. Funded by the Ministry of Defence, Phlegethen is in its initial testing phase.
