Course summary

This 12 month programme features no taught content, rather you will undertake a research project and write a thesis from your results. Similar to a PhD, you will have a supervisor who is based in your chosen field. MSc by Research will develop your academic and practical skills and is an excellent option should you wish to explore your area of interest further but feel that a PhD is not the right choice at this time. MSc by Research students often go on to PhD study or to work in industry.Our work in this area covers the processes of cardiac remodelling and repair in health and disease. Cardiac adaptions through remodelling and repair occur at multiple levels and throughout life. One highly-contested area of research is the extent of myocardial regeneration that takes place following myocardial damage, and the role of stem or progenitor cells in this. A broad combination of approaches underpins our research: stem and progenitor cell biology cardiovascular adaptations across the lifespan super-resolution imaging of molecular changes in cardiac maintenance and disease computational models of disease. We use a range of techniques from the molecular level, through cellular assays, to measurement of electrical activity in the intact heart using optical mapping.
