Chemical Biology and Bio-Entrepreneurship (Taught)

Advance your understanding of the emerging discipline of chemical biology on this Master's course.

This area of science sits at the interface of traditional chemistry and biology.

You'll draw on ideas of modern physical sciences and apply them to the solution of biological problems at the molecular level.

You'll also explore the techniques being used to address this next great challenge in biological science: how gene products interact with the molecular and cellular environment.

This course will help you build a range of skills in biomolecular research, with teaching carried out in a multidisciplinary environment.

You'll then apply these techniques to an extended research project exploring a set area of chemical biology.

The programme is run by the Institute of Chemical Biology’s Centre for Doctoral Training.

The research element provides physical scientists with the ability to bridge disparate fields and gain the confidence to grapple with biomolecular research in a multidisciplinary environment.
