How does the human body function on the molecular, cellular and physiological level? The Master’s Programme in Biomedical Sciences studies how we can understand, prevent, diagnose and treat human diseases.
Biomedical research has a central role in shaping tomorrow's medicine, through the development of new drugs and understanding disease mechanisms.

The impact of new discoveries in biomedicine is significant: we develop technology that can lower the production costs of medicine, we analyse cancer development and progression and develop molecular imaging techniques.

Through biomedicine, we understand human body function and health. Fighting infectious diseases through new therapies and vaccines also has an extra impact on life in developing countries.
