课程概览
This course is designed for students looking to advance their practical laboratory skills in the fast-moving field of molecular biology and biotechnology. Through practical research training, we’ll help you to build on your undergraduate foundational knowledge, preparing you for your next steps as a researcher. Explore your modules in detail Practical laboratory experience is at the heart of our teaching, with more than half of your studies taking place in the lab. Here you’ll complete training modules covering a wide range of advanced techniques that are used in the modern biotechnology sector. You'll learn core skills such as CRISPR genome editing, molecular cloning, organism handling, DNA sequence analysis, PCR, SDS-PAGE and western blotting. Alongside this, you’ll undertake dedicated research skills training in scientific writing, statistical analysis, and how to critically appraise scientific literature. Lectures and seminars will support your practical learning, giving you an understanding of the latest scientific breakthroughs. Topics you’ll cover include the drug discovery process, featuring guest speakers from industry, and how translational biotechnology applications are fusing fundamental molecular mechanisms with emerging technologies. Once you’ve mastered the fundamental molecular bioscience techniques, you’ll apply these skills to your research project. Here you’ll spend up to five months addressing a key research question in an area of molecular biology or biotechnology under the supervision of expert academic staff. Examples of previous student research projects include:
