Trinity College Dublin · Dublin, Ireland
The Molecular Medicine programme was established in 1997. The programme is delivered by more than 80 research experts, including academic scientists, clinicians and healthcare professionals from Trinity and its associated teaching hospitals as well as many external experts. Students acquire broad theoretical knowledge of topics such as cellular signaling, genetics, oncology and immunology in human health and disease. Specialist topics are also covered, such as the molecular basis of human diseases, the role of infectious agents in disease, advanced diagnostics and therapeutics, nano-medicine and medicinal chemistry. A central component of the programme is practical ‘hands-on’ experience in state-of-the-art research laboratories, with access to the latest cutting-edge technologies in the biomedical and life sciences.
