CELL4108: Cell and Developmental Biology Honours F
2024 unit information
Undertaking Honours in Cell and Developmental Biology will enable you to be part of world leading medical research within the School of Medical Sciences. Your Honours year will include a 36cp research project giving you access to the latest biomedical technologies, whilst two 6cp coursework units will aid in the development of fundamental research and communication skills. Research in the field of Cell and Developmental Biology aims to understand diverse challenges in medicine and health at the molecular, cellular and developmental level relationships. Our academic supervisors offer projects in the fields of cataract, cancer biology, embryology, reproduction and cell signalling. Completion of the project aims to provide training in advanced scientific methodologies, technical skills and critical thinking skills. You will be expected to design and carry out experiments, collect and analyse data and to statistically evaluate your experimental results. The findings you obtain will be interpreted in relation to previous research done in this area and to the general field in which the work is relevant. On successful completion of the honours project, you will have developed generic attributes of analytical and critical thinking, communication and laboratory research skills as well as an in-depth advanced knowledge of your chosen research topic.
