Deep insight into the functioning of living systems depends upon a thorough knowledge of the chemical and physical principles that govern the structure and behaviour of biomolecules. Structural molecular biology encompasses those areas of science devoted to a detailed understanding of the fundamental molecular and biochemical components of living systems and of how these components interact in the functional (healthy) and dysfunctional (diseased) organism. Such understanding finds application in numerous areas including basic biotechnology, diagnostics and forensics, and drug discovery. This integrated Master’s programme, comprising the three-year BSc Biomedicine and one year of Master's-level study, will provide you with the knowledge, skills and hands-on research experience that will help you to launch your career in these or other exciting areas of research science. **Highlights** - Birkbeck's Department of Biological Sciences provides state-of-the-art, specialist laboratories and facilities at the heart of academic London. - In the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF), in a joint submission with UCL, Biological Sciences at Birkbeck were ranked 11th in the UK. - You will be taught by internationally distinguished experts who work with governments and institutions around the globe to extend the boundaries of knowledge. - Working in close collaboration with the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology, a joint institute between Birkbeck and UCL, our Department is recognised for the excellence and international impact of its research. - You will receive training in practical skills and lab work, including microscopy, DNA manipulation and protein handling.
