Our fifth anniversary

Balloons shaped like the number five above a crowd of people celebrating.

In 2022, we marked the fifth anniversary of the last research group moving into the Crick.

In our first five years, we have recruited 32 new early career group leaders from 15 countries. Our faculty has been recognised through major scientific prizes, including a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

We have recruited more than 300 students and more than 600 postdocs, and engaged more than 20,000 students from our local schools through our education programme.

We're now looking forward to building even stronger connections across the UK, training the next generation of scientists, and working to support the global biomedical research community.

Shaping science

To mark the first five years of Crick research, we published a series of articles looking at areas of science that have seen dramatic changes in the past five years.
