Translational medicine involves the use of laboratory findings to find practical new ways to diagnose and treat patients, supporting programmes with the potential to improve the health of millions of people all over the world.
This desire to see a rapid progression from laboratory bench to hospital bedside brings with it huge hurdles that must be addressed and overcome - scientific, technological, commercial, ethical and regulatory.
This has created the need for a whole new range of suitably trained professionals to carry out the critical task of moving medical research closer to commercial medical technology, hence the introduction of this degree, the first of its kind in the UK.
The course is divided into two parts: ten compulsory taught modules and an Individual Research Project.
Modules:
Translation of New Medicinal Discoveries into the Clinic
Research Design and Methodology
Statistical Analysis and Interpretation
Research Governance and Ethics
Drug Target and Biomarker Discovery
Preclinical Evaluation
Clinical Trial Practice
Regulatory Requirements and Marketing-Research Interface
Business Principles
Novel Approaches in Translational Medicine
Research Project:
This crucial part of the course gives you the chance to concentrate on a particular subject area, perhaps in collaboration with the type of organisation that you are hoping to find employment with on the successful completion of the course.The project acts as a fantastic opportunity for you to meet potential future employers and practically apply your new knowledge.
