Study Personalised Medicine at Ulster University in the United Kingdom. Personalised Medicine (also known as stratified medicine or precision medicine) is at the cutting edge of a new era in healthcare. Personalised Medicine draws on molecular biology, data analytics and clinical practice to streamline healthcare, identifying ‘the right treatment, for the right person, at the right time. By learning how genes, lifestyle and the environment influence disease and affect the success of treatments, we can understand which treatments are best for each patient. Personalised Medicine involves discovering biomarkers (such as genes or proteins) that can determine who is at risk of developing a disease, how severe the disease will be and who will respond better to one therapy versus another, revolutionising how quickly patients receive effective treatment and transforming the efficiency of healthcare. Our course is taught by a team of experienced and active research scientists, with contributions from industry experts and hospital doctors. Our course received 100% overall satisfaction in the 2019 National Student Survey and 90% of graduates were in full time work or study within 6 months of graduation.The Personalised Medicine BSc Hons is a three-year, full-time course (or four years including placement in third year) that equips you with a 360-degree skill set across biomedical science, data science and clinical practice to prepare you for a career in the life sciences. In year one students study six modules that establish a strong foundation in topics such as physiology, cell biology, immunology, data analytics and the ‘omics’ (genomics, proteomics and metabolomics). Year two consists of six modules that develop your expertise further, with deeper data analytics and new informatics skills and the exploration of pharmacogenomics, DNA sequencing and the governance of clinical trials. An optional placement year is available in year three that provides a wide range of opportunities for students to experience professional practice and to develop project management skills in an industrial, hospital or university environment.
