Master of Research - Biomedical Research: Cardiovascular Sciences

Providing students with an in-depth knowledge of the field and allowing them to gain practical experience working as part of leading research groups in the Centre for Cardiovascular Sciences, students will investigate molecular, physiological and pathological processes underlying cardiovascular homeostasis in health and disease.

The programme consists of compulsory taught and research elements. The taught aspects include training in key research skills including scientific writing, critical analysis of literature, presentation skills and a research toolkit module covering key experimental techniques. Students will also study a specific module on cardiovascular science to ensure that they have a basic grounding of all aspects of the field and to introduce the topics and research questions on which their project will be based.
