Course content

Build multidisciplinary skills in biomedical research on this Master's course, specialising in molecular mechanisms and structural biology.

You'll explore fundamental disease mechanisms and the scientific methodology used to unravel these mechanisms.

Broad training is provided in a range of biomedical research areas. These include structural molecular biology, biochemistry and biophysics, cell biology and clinical/pharmaceutical applications.

You'll build transferable skills through a programme of grant writing, technical workshops and journal clubs. You'll also investigate disease pathways and potential therapeutic interventions on pressing human diseases.

Two extensive research projects provide an opportunity to apply your expertise to areas of interest within this specialism.
