Regenerative Medicine

What you'll study

You will receive advanced, multi-disciplinary training in the scientific principles and clinical applications of regenerative medicine. The programme is delivered jointly by Queen Mary University of London's Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry and the School of Engineering and Materials Science.

Through the taught modules, you will develop a strong scientific foundation in the biology of stem cells and regeneration, as well as the fundamental principles of biomaterials, tissue engineering and cellular reprogramming.

If you choose the MSc option, you will undertake an intensive 12-week individual research project, where you will gain hands-on experience applying these concepts to problems in human health and the development of novel regenerative technologies. These will primarily be lab-based in our state-of-the-art research facilities, with some bioinformatics projects also available. You will gain hands-on experience in discovery research by designing and carrying out your experiment. You will be provided with training in experimental design, effective collaboration, data analysis, and presentation skills.

If you choose the MRes option, in the second and third semesters you will have the opportunity to complete an extended research project.

Queen Mary University of London's Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry is comprised of two renowned and prestigious teaching hospitals: St Bartholomew’s and The Royal London. Both continue to make an outstanding contribution to modern medicine and together have been consistently ranked among the top five universities in the UK for medicine.
