Cancer is one of the biggest health challenges facing the world today, accounting for nearly one in six deaths. Our innovative MSc in Cancer Biology and Therapy gives you the opportunity to kick start a career in research and stand at the forefront of the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancer. With us, you will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to make an impact and improve patient outcomes. Our course is suited to clinicians and academics interested in a career in Cancer Biology and Research, and science graduates looking to further their studies via doctoral research, enter academic medicine or pursue a career in industry, clinical service (NHS trust diagnostic departments) or a related discipline (become a technician developing assays and reagents for cancer research in industry). Change the future of cancerJoin a network of leading experts and prepare for a career as a leading researcher. Develop and study in an internationally renowned research centre, making significant contributions to the understanding and treatment of cancer. Build a solid understanding of the application of molecular approaches to the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancers. Undertake a research project, targeting a specific area of cancer biology alongside our team of leading experts. You’ll develop a research proposal and then deliver a project that entails 4 months of full-time work investigating a topic related to discovery andor translational cancer research. Projects are different every year as they are integrated into ongoing programmes of research. FacilitiesYou’ll access research-active, state-of-the-art laboratories during your research project.
