The Clinical Sciences MSc is designed to advance the students’ expertise in the molecular and cellular mechanisms that underpin human health, alongside cutting-edge clinical applications. This programme offers an integrative approach that spans fundamental biomedical sciences to advanced translational research, all under the broad theme of Molecules, Cells, Tissues, and Clinical Practice. The programme couples in depth taught material to gain further insight into cellular mechanisms in health and disease, with a final semester, hands-on, independent research project.

The curriculum has been designed to deepen your understanding of how biomedical research drives innovation in clinical settings with research-led approaches embedded throughout. From 2D and 3D cell culture models to in vivo and ex vivo systems, you will explore a wide range of experimental techniques that are currently at forefront of biomedical science. The programme places a strong emphasis on the translational aspects of clinical research and how it feeds into medical interventions, equipping the students to bridge the gap between laboratory research and clinical implementation.

This programme is designed for students who require an in-depth knowledge of biomedical and clinical sciences, and will equip you with globally-relevant skills to address critical healthcare challenges through cutting-edge research methodologies. You will engage with state-of-the-art techniques in topics such as advanced bioinformatics, organoid and embryonic stem cell model systems, as well as incorporating uniquely-advanced training in the regulatory frameworks that govern translational medicine. Examples of the latter include the application of the 3Rs principles (Replacement, Reduction, Refinement) and the latest discussions on how embryonic stem cell research drives diagnostics and regenerative medicine. Throughout the programme, you will develop comprehensive skills, bringing in research integrity, ethical publishing and scientific communication, all well beyond basic technical proficiency. This comprehensive skillset will enhance your ability to conduct and disseminate research with a clear global impact.
