Course programme

This course will offer experience and training in contemporary topics in the cell biology of human disease that are relevant to intercalating medical students.


There are core modules in genetic engineering and the cell biology of disease. These lecture-based modules will be complemented with

  • practical training in fundamental molecular biology techniques through the completion of a PCR
  • gene cloning and protein expression mini-project
  • research skills training in experimental design, data analysis, abstract writing and scientific communication to both expert and non-expert groups.
In addition, you'll be exposed to cutting edge research developments in cell biology topics relating to human disease through the study of two Advanced Topic Modules (ATUs). ATUs covered include


  • cancer biology and therapy
  • stem cell biology
  • tissue replacement
  • RNA biology and therapy
  • protein folding, and
  • diseases.

You'll also complete a literature-based research project enabling you to focus on, and research in depth, a topic relating to the cell biology of human disease that is of interest to you.
