Course summary
Learn to work collaboratively on the 'big problems' and applications in synthetic and systems biology on this Master's course. You'll gain intensive hands-on experience in a combination of experimental biology and modelling in order to understand, predict and redesign biological pathways. This course also links with the BIOS Centre at King's College to facilitate the integration of this research with emerging ethical, legal and societal issues. You'll explore a range of topics covering key aspects of experimental systems biology, theoretical systems biology, synthetic biology, and advanced technologies. Teaching is delivered through practicals, case studies, proposal writing and journal clubs. You'll also apply your skills to an eight-month interdisciplinary research project. This will be in a study area of your choice and enables you to form close connections to experts working in industry and medicine.
