Doctor of Philosophy - PhD
Summary
Our PhD/MPhil Biochemistry programme enables you to undertake a research project that will improve understanding of Biochemistry.
A biochemical approach aims to understand the chemical processes that occur in plants and animals. It forms the basis for investigating the function and properties of molecules, cells, tissues and whole organisms, under normal and abnormal conditions and in response to their changing environment.
**Examples include:**
- Cell membrane and cell wall structure and function;
- Intracellular trafficking of proteins & organelles;
- Regulation of metabolism in healthand disease;
- Protein structural analysisand relationship to protein function;
- Transcriptionaland post-transcriptional regulation in prokaryoticand eukaryotic cells;
- Cellular recognitionand interactions;
- Protein secretionand post-translational processing;
- Molecular analysis of cellular stress responses;
- Signal transductionand intracellular signalling mechanisms;
- Macromolecular assembliesand cell function.

MSc
Summary
Our MSc Biochemistry course will give you research experience and professional skills in contemporary biochemistry, opening up a future career in industry or academic research.
Biochemical understanding is fundamental to all biological disciplines. While much of modern biochemistry aims to provide an understanding of fundamental biological processes at a molecular level, it also contributes to the solving of medical problems and the discovery of safe and effective drugs.
This is a research-focused course that uses an interactive approach to learning through seminars, workshops, small group tutorials and research placements rather than a traditional lecture-based format.
Rather than attending traditional lectures on your chosen subject, you will learn through an interactive approach involving seminars, workshops and small group tutorials preparing you for relevant aspects of a science-based career. As this is a research-focused master's course, you will also undertake your own research project in the laboratory of a leading researchers.
You choose the laboratory placement from a list provided by your programme director. Projects on this list come from any of our areas of research relating to biochemistry. As we have over 200 research-active labs, we can offer a wide range of projects to choose from. For an idea of the breadth of available projects, browse our research pages.
**PhD with integrated master's**
If you're planning to undertake a PhD after your master's, our Integrated PhD programme will enable you to combine your postgraduate taught course with a related PhD project in biology, medicine or health.
