Summary
Research stands at the forefront of science to prevent illness, develop therapies and improve human health. At Leeds, our ambition is to drive forward research to make impactful changes on both local and international levels.
The MRes Medicine is designed to resemble a mini-PhD. It is an exciting research-based course designed to challenge your critical and creative approach to current issues in medicine and health. We will provide you with training and opportunities to develop as a scientist or scientifically literate clinician, resulting in a comprehensive understanding of the concepts and techniques relevant to medical research.
MRes students frequently use the experience gained as a springboard to a PhD, a career in industry, or a clinical academic position.
