It forms the basis for investigating the function and properties of molecules, cells, tissues and whole organisms, under normal and abnormal conditions and in response to their changing environment.Examples include: cell membrane and cell wall structure and function intracellular trafficking of proteins & organelles regulation of metabolism in health and disease protein structural analysis and relationship to protein function transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells cellular recognition and interactions protein secretion and post-translational processing molecular analysis of cellular stress responses signal transduction and intracellular signalling mechanisms macromolecular assemblies and cell function.Teaching and learningPhD/MPhil programmes are based on individual research projects that last three to four years (PhD) or one year (MPhil), working with a specific Primary Supervisor and Co-Supervisor(s).Applicants are specifically matched with a Primary Supervisor and individual project based on their research interests and background.Career opportunitiesYour postgraduate research degree will open up a range of career opportunities after you graduate.
