Overview
Our Stem Cells & Tissue Repair iBSc degree is a unique and challenging study course that delves into the molecular and cellular basis for how tissues are formed and repaired, with a focus on the role of stem cells in this. This course provides an in-depth and well-rounded exploration of this fascinating subject area through research-led teaching provided by the Centre for Craniofacial and Regenerative Biology and Centre for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine. It is suitable for intercalating dental, veterinary and medical students, and is also open to third-year biosciences students interested in the field of stem cell and regenerative biology.
