Research in DN A technology, bioinformatics and immunology are becoming essential elements in the routine diagnosis and treatment of a range of disorders, including gene disorders, infectious diseases and multi-factorial diseases such as cancer and heart disease. This course is intended to give you the skills and knowledge you need to understand and apply the technologies emerging from that research.
The market for such skills includes the medical laboratory service, research institutions, forensic medicine and industries related to medicine. The latter includes traditional pharmaceutical and biotechnological companies involved in the commercial marketing of specific products, such as PCR-based diagnostic kits, DNA probes, gene therapy vectors, recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies. This course is accredited by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS).
