Molecular Medicine is a discipline which researches the causes and mechanisms of disease at a molecular level and applies this knowledge to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease. The Master of Research (MRes) degree in Molecular Medicine uses a multi-disciplinary, research-based approach to teach students the skills needed to pursue a research career in academia, industry or research institutes. The main aim of this program is to develop the Scientific Research Skills of motivated postgraduate students aiming for a career in scientific research. The program will combine laboratory research with supportive and integrative taught content tailored to equip the student to effectively interpret and communicate scientific findings. The program aims to develop rigorous research and analytical skills, a concept of good laboratory practice and ability to critically interpret and evaluate both the scientific literature and self-generated data. Creativity and originality in students approach to laboratory research will be encouraged.
This module aims to develop the scientific research skills of students enrolled in postgraduate (Master level) research programs (PGR). It is designed to prepare students for a career in scientific research and provide a structured entry level experience of laboratory-based PhD research. The student will develop the ability to conduct reliable and independent laboratory-based research, integrating their increasing understanding of the nature of scientific experimentation with developing experimental planning and execution skills to address a specific research hypothesis.
Effective independent research requires a researcher integrates in-depth knowledge and understanding of the nature of scientific experimentation with a set of key skill sets, directly applicable to the investigation of a specific research hypothesis. The Research Skills module is designed to prepare students for an hypothesis-driven Masters level, laboratory research project and to provide a platform from which they can develop the in-depth background knowledge and understanding and specialist application skills, directly applicable to a specific research project.
