About this course

This one-year full-time course provides a broad training to prepare students for a career in biomedical research. In addition to the main biomedical research stream, run by the Department of Surgery and Cancer, this course also offers research opportunities in specialised streams, run by various departments in the Faculty of Medicine. These are: Anaesthetics, Pain Medicine and Intensive Care (run by Department of Surgery and Cancer) Bacterial Pathogenesis and Infection (run by Department of Medicine) Data Science (run by Department of Surgery and Cancer) Epidemiology, Evolution and Control of Infectious Diseases (run by School of Public Health) Microbiome in Health and Disease (run by Centre for Digestive and Gut Health and the Department of Surgery and Cancer) Molecular Basis of Human Disease (run by Department of Medicine) Personalised Healthcare (run by Department of Surgery and Cancer) Respiratory and Cardiovascular Science (run by National Heart and Lung Institute) The emphasis is on a research-orientated approach and comprises both theoretical and practical elements. You will acquire an understanding of modern molecular and cell science in world-class biomedical research laboratories through both theory and practical exposure, and will demonstrate practical dexterity in both commonly employed and more advanced practical techniques.

All applicants must apply online. You can usually apply for up to two courses, although your second choice will only be considered if your first-choice application is unsuccessful. Most courses don't have a formal closing date, but popular courses close when they are full, so you should apply early to avoid disappointment. There may also be funding deadlines that apply to you.
