Cardiovascular Biology
This module will provide you with an understanding of the breadth of cardiovascular science, the current theories and dogmas within the field and exposure to cutting edge research.

Theory of Laboratory Research Methods
You will receive introductory lectures and course work books on specific methodologies including molecular biology, cell culture and biochemical approaches as tools for biological research. In particular, techniques such as PCR amplification, gene cloning, protein expression in cultured cells, the study of antigen antibody interactions, tissue culture and cell differentiation assay will be covered. Analytical techniques will include agarose gel electrophoresis western blotting , ELISA and real time PCR analysis of RNA expression. Fluorescence techniques such as flow cytometry, fluorescence/ confocal microscopy will also be covered.

Research project
During the project, you will undertake a dedicated research project working in one of the research labs. You will design and carry out experiments, analyse your data and prepare it for presentation at group meetings and in a thesis.
