This Masters course will provide students the opportunity to do a full year of research within QMUL laboratories.A central question of modern biological and medical research is how genes are regulated. In recent years, our ability to answer this question has dramatically increased, leading to new and exciting ways to research and understand the fundamental principles of life and treating diseases. In particular, the approaches that hold the most promise are those that combine different disciplines. The ResM in ‘Gene Regulation’ is a new program that offers the unique opportunity to undertake a year of full-time research on a cutting-edge interdisciplinary project within the fields of biological and/or medical research. You will have the opportunity to work in world-leading labs on projects that integrate diverse fields such as genomics, epigenetics, clinical research, non-model organisms, computational biology (including AI), all with the goal of understanding how genomes are regulated in different contexts. Ultimately, the program will provide an excellent springboard for either a subsequent PhD, or employment in industry.Undertake a year of full-time research (no taught coursework)Research projects will be interdisciplinary, integrating different fields.Ideal training for a subsequent PhD or jobs in industryLearn and work with leading researchers within outstanding research facilities.Options to be based at any of QMUL’s London campuses.Attend lectures from world-leading scientists and be fully immersed in the networking activities of the Centre for Epigenetics.
