  • DeadlineStudy Details:

Course Description

Our Master of Research (MRes) in Translational Medicine will give you the research skills you need to use state-of-the-art biotechnologies to rapidly translate disease research into improved clinical healthcare.

You will learn omics skills and techniques such as genetics, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics.

The course consists of four taught units plus an extended 35-week project that can be undertaken at the University, the Manchester Cancer Research Centre or a teaching hospital in Greater Manchester.

You can choose from a range of projects covering areas such as the use of gene expression profiling, proteomics, metabolomics, stem cell research, tissue culture or pharmacogenetics in the biology of cancer, cardiovascular disease, infectious diseases, stroke or diabetes.

We require an honours degree (minimum Upper Second) or overseas equivalent in: Biomedical Sciences, Medical Sciences, Biological Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Biochemical Sciences, Pharmacological Sciences, Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine. This must be from a recognised university. We will also consider candidates with Upper Second degrees in a relevant analytical, physical or computing science area. Evidence of previous advanced study, research or professional experience may be accepted as qualification for entry for applicants with a Lower Second or equivalent. We do not require previous research experience or a developed research proposal from applicants. This course is also available for intercalating medical students, both from the University of Manchester and other UK universities. Intercalating students must have satisfactorily completed Years 1 to 3 of the MBChB. For St Andrews students, this includes the 3-year course and the following year in Manchester (Year 3 of the Manchester course).
