Our MPhil, MD and PhD Degrees in Biosciences study the fundamental biology of life, driving forward a mechanistic understanding of human health and disease and the development of next-generation clinical therapies. Biosciences research encompasses over 100 different research groups. It brings together biochemists, bioengineers, and cellular, molecular, systems and computational biologists. Together they form a vibrant multi-disciplinary community. Our research in fundamental biology drives forward mechanistic understanding of human diseases with the ultimate goal of improving human health.We offer MPhil, PhD and MD supervision in a wide variety of research areas including:cell division & signallingchromosomes and genome instabilitygene expression, epigenetics and chromatinRNA biology and protein translationtechnology and drug developmentmolecular and human genetics and genomicsmolecular microbiology, metabolomics and antimicrobial resistancehost-pathogen interactionsmicrobiotafungal microbiologybiochemistry and structural biologybioinformaticsneuroscienceimmunity and inflammationcancer biologyageing and geroscienceanimal and human behaviourstem cell biologytissue engineeringepithelial physiology and diseasemitochondrial biology and diseasesensory, perceptive and cognitive neurologydevelopmental biology and geneticsproteomicscomparative and evolutionary genomics
