About the course

This course provides advanced academic, laboratory and research training in modern cellular and molecular immunology, with emphasis on the interface between the basic and clinical aspects of the subject.  Four modules taught over five months are followed by a seven month research project.

At the end of the seven month research project, students will have gained excellent laboratory experience, learnt a variety of skills and techniques and produced a thesis.

This course provides ideal training for students wishing to pursue a career in science or medicine, but the many transferable skills gained during the course can also be applied to careers outside of science.
