癌症研究和分子生物医学

Our MSc Cancer Research and Molecular Biomedicine course will give
you thorough training in this area alongside lab-based research
placements.As this is a research-focused master's course, you will take an
interactive approach to learning through seminars, workshops, small
group tutorials and research placements rather than traditional
lectures.You will take three transferable skills units covering topics
such as experimental design and statistics and science communication,
and then focus on a research placement in the labs of leading cancer
researchers.You will gain research experience and professional skills,
perhaps in a different area to your first degree, before deciding on a
future career in industry or academic research. This will allow you to
make an informed choice about the research area you want to go into.You choose the research placement from a list provided by your
programme director in the lab of experienced cancer scientists working
on processes relating to tumourigenesis. These include: understanding cell cycle control mechanisms and how they are disrupted in the formation of a tumour;investigating the cell fate choices of normal cells, and how these differ in cancer cells;investigating how cell signals regulate gene expression in
different types of cells, and how this flow of information is
compromised in cancer cells.
