Biological and Medical Sciences
The Department of Biological and Medical Sciences is a small and friendly department with around 40 research students. The department offers a structured training programme for all students, spanning the subject areas of Cell and Molecular Biology, Biomedical Science and Environmental Biology.
We have close partnerships with hospitals and local industry. Some of our students conduct much of their research within those placements, while others are based in the field or in the department’s own research laboratories.
We welcome applications for projects relating to our research expertise. This covers three main themes:
- Biomedical Sciences
- Molecular Cell and Developmental Biology
- Environmental biology.
You may register for a research degree on a full-time or part-time basis. Applications are welcome from part-time students in employment who wish to undertake a research project connected with their work. We also periodically advertise funded studentships.
