The Biomedical Sciences (Cancer Biology) MSc has been designed to provide knowledge of aspects of cancer. Improved global life expectancy has resulted in a cancer epidemic. It is recognised that early and accurate diagnosis is an essential aspect of the administration of increasingly expensive and tailored cancer treatment care plans. Modern diagnostic pathways and treatments are in turn informed by research.
The Biomedical Sciences (Cancer Biology) MSc course has been devised to provide knowledge of key aspects of this important area of disease.
Students will become familiar with the genetic and cellular changes occurring in both solid and blood-borne cancers, the current and emerging technological approaches for diagnosis of the disease and the effect of pertinent cellular changes on patient prognosis.
During the course students will join Westminster's thriving research environment and will have access to excellent laboratory facilities within the School. On successful completion of the course, students will be equipped to take forward their career with an in-depth knowledge of this increasingly common disease area.
