Biological Sciences (Neuroscience) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-neuroscience-mbiolsci
Computers are powerful machines, but no computer is more powerful or complex than the human brain. Studying neuroscience will reveal how brains and nervous systems work in animals, including humans – and what happens when something goes wrong... -
Medical Biosciences (Physiology) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-biosciences-physiology-mbiolsci
The human body is a collection of interacting systems that in normal health work smoothly with each other in a self-regulated manner. By studying this in the context of medical science at molecular, cellular and systems levels, you will find out how diseases happen and the science behind the clinical strategies to cure them. On the MBiolSci, you will hone your research and laboratory skills and extend your medically specialised BSc programme into a fourth year of masters level study... -
Medical Physiology BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-physiology-bsc
The human body works through complex interactions between ions, atoms, molecules, cells and systems. Whilst allowing maintenance of diverse functions in health, even subtle changes can result in disease. Understanding how these components operate in normal physiology and how they malfunction in disease provides the opportunity to understand how we target disease and how new therapies might be developed... -
Medical Biosciences (Biochemistry) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-biosciences-biochemistry-mbiolsci
By studying biochemistry in the context of medical science, you will learn how biochemical research has been applied to tackle the world’s most pressing health issues. On the MBiolSci, you will hone your research and laboratory skills and extend your medically specialised BSc programme into a fourth year of masters level study... -
Medical Biochemistry BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-biochemistry-bsc
Many of today’s common diseases are linked to defects in the molecular processes that occur in the body. To make big breakthroughs in diagnosing and treating disease, we therefore often have to look at life at the molecular level. Studying biochemistry in this way will give you an understanding of some of the world’s most pressing health issues... -
Medical Microbiology BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-microbiology-bsc
Infectious diseases account for a quarter of all deaths. It’s a hard statistic to take in, but it’s why we keep studying the microscopic organisms that cause them. In this degree, you’ll learn how infectious diseases are caused, prevented, managed and cured – in both research and clinical environments... -
Medical Genetics BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/medical-genetics-bsc
Genetics and molecular biology already tell us so much about who we are. But when researched and tested in the right ways, they also tell us how to better diagnose and treat disease. If this sounds up your alley, this degree is for you... -
Biological Sciences (Physiology with Pharmacology) BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-physiology-with-pharmacology-bsc
There are complex relationships between molecules, cells and systems that require precise control to allow optimum function within living organisms. Alterations in these relationships can lead to disease and an understanding of such events can provide the foundation for the use of drugs to treat disease... -
Biological Sciences (Microbiology) BSc
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-microbiology-bsc
Microorganisms. They might be small, but they tell us more about life on Earth than almost any other living things. You’ll learn how they’re both helpful and harmful, as well as the evolving role of microbiology in biotechnology, health and disease. This degree includes the option to change your specialism in your second year... -
Biological Sciences (Genetics) MBiolSci
https://le.ac.uk/courses/biological-sciences-genetics-mbiolsci
Genetics is so much more than the study of inheritance. Fundamental to our understanding of health and disease, food security, conservation and ecology and the origins of life, genetics has a massive influence on ethics and society. On the MBiolSci, you will hone your research and laboratory skills and extend your medically specialised BSc programme into a fourth year of masters level study...
