Course summary

Our aim is to train a new generation of researchers with expertise in stem cell culture and engineering cellular microenvironments in the regenerative medicine space, to help fill the skills shortage in the industrial life sciences sector. The UK and further afield hosts a rapidly growing regenerative medicine sector with major centres focused on production of cellular and acellular therapies and a growth of clinical trialling. Therefore, there is increasing demand for recruits with highly specialised regenerative medicine experience. Receive expert teaching, from academics across both Life Sciences and Bioengineering disciplines, providing understanding on the concepts of stem cells and the translation aims, biophysics, scaffolds and tissues, ‘omic approaches to data handling, bioimaging and bioinformatics. Learn lab skills, including cell culture and molecular biology, to allow you to complete a final semester research project. Accredited by the Royal Society of Biology for the purpose of meeting, in part, the academic and experience requirement for the Membership and Chartered Biologist (CBiol). Work on an interdisciplinary project in your final semester, which will lie at the interface between bioengineering and life sciences. Laboratory based projects will be carried out mainly within our new Advanced Research Centre at the University of Glasgow.Following completion, graduates will be equipped with the skills to progress with a career in stem cell engineering and regenerative medicine directly, through a variety of means such as: Regulation (e.g. MHRA, SNBTS, CGTC), Industry (e.g. regenerative medicine, pharma, toxicology), Academia, Patenting and IP, Local government (governance and law), Science writing, Further research training via a PhD.
