Molecular Medicine MSc/PgDip

As we enter the post-genomic era, the field of molecular medicine continues to expand and we are making a significant change in the way we approach healthcare. Future success depends upon new knowledge, new tools for investigation and therapies tailor-made to the individual. This exciting advancement will enable physicians to prevent and cure sickness by treating the process of the disease itself rather than the symptoms.

The MSc in Molecular Medicine will provide you with an advanced understanding of how to apply both molecular and cell biology to the study, diagnosis and prevention of disease.

The course is delivered by leading academics who have close professional contact with industry specialists.
