MPhil in Meical Science （Clinical Biochemistry） 臨床生物化學(xué)

課程內(nèi)容：

Stuents receive training in scientific laboratory skills an methos appropriate to the project.

All grauate stuents at the MRL are encourage to atten an appropriate range of training courses provie by the Grauate School of Life Sciences an to receive careers avice from the University Careers Service.

There is an energetic stuent community at the metabolic Research Laboratories (MRL) that organises regular events such as journal clubs,as well as an annual stuent symposium. These events provie valuable experience in all aspects of organisng scientific events,incluing managing bugets,arranging catering,scheuling speakers an marketing iniviual events.

The MPhil programme offere by the Department of Clinical Biochemistry in the metabolic Research Laboratories (MRL) is a supervise,1-year,laboratory-base research course,with each stuent conucting their MPhil project uner the irection of their Principal Supervisor. The course is entirely by research. Stuents shoul expect to receive regular supervision from their principal supervisor,ieally at least once a month,an formal feeback each term. Stuents also atten regular lab meetings an will present their work at the annual MRL Stuent Symposium.

課程設(shè)置：

Biochemistry is the stuy of the chemical properties of biologically important molecules an processes in cells an tissues. It eals with the structure an function of cellular components,such as proteins,carbohyrates,lipis,nucleic acis,an other biomolecules. Biochemical unerstaning is funamental to all biological isciplines. While much of moern biochemistry aims to provie an unerstaning of funamental biological processes at a molecular level,it also contributes to the solving of meical problems an the iscovery of safe an effective rugs. This programme allows stuents to gain research experience in contemporary biochemistry,which may be a ifferent area to their first egree,an professional skills,before eciing on a future career in inustry or acaemic research.

課程名稱：Bioinformatics MSc: 生物信息

課程設(shè)置：

This moule teaches the basic skills necessary to progress through the course. We begin with an introuction to Linux an eal with the installation of software an applying upates an patches. The next component hanles the intricacies of the Linux operating system incluing files,archives an compression systems. This provies the basis for more avance aspects of configuring the computer an installing software. An introuction to the concepts of web-page esign conclues this moule.

Programming: Java an Databases for Bioinformatics

This moule introuces you to the basic ieas for eveloping software to solve a problem. These ieas are introuce in the object oriente programming language Java. You will also be introuce to the evelopment of graphical user interfaces an applets in Java. The secon aspect of the moule covers the use of computer atabases,an more importantly for a bioinformatician,how they can be esigne,built an querie efficiently.

Programming: Perl for Bioinformatics

Perl is a scripting language that enables bioinformatics housekeeping tasks,but is also powerful enough to be use in most bioinformatics webservers an applications. You will learn the key commans an programming structures use in Perl. Following the material covere in lectures you evelop your programming skills by solving small programming problems in tutorials. The moule enables you to write original Perl programs in a bioinformatics context,but also utilise existing solutions an structures in public omain resources.

Algorithms for Bioinformatics

Processing biological ata requires complex computations on large volumes of ata. This moule introuces you to the algorithmic solutions of such computational problems an also covers the probabilistic moels that unerlie the ata processing tasks in bioinformatics.

Gene an Genome Analysis

This moule informs you of the broa role of bioinformatics in genetics an genomics. You cover basic molecular an cellular processes unerlying gene expression,genome structure an evolution an the techniques use to stuy them. You will then explore genome sequencing projects an genome annotation as major bioinformatics applications as well as functional an comparative genomics. Statistical analyses unerpin many informatic challenges in biology,so you will apply statistical tools (specifically the R programming language) to two major research topics: transcriptomics an molecular evolution.

Proteins

This moule introuces you to the basic features of protein structures an methos use in structure etermination. A central feature is hans-on training in the visualisation an comparison of protein structures. You will also learn theory an practice in alignment an comparison of amino aci sequences an how these can be use. We also introuce you to molecular moelling an iscuss the rug esign process,incluing visiting speakers from the pharmaceutical inustry.

專業(yè)設(shè)置：Inustrial Physical Biochemistry MRes 生物化學(xué)

課程設(shè)置：

The awar of MRes requires 180 creits for completion.

You will unertake a taught moule 'Funamentals of Biomolecular Science' uring the autumn semester (20 creits) incluing lectures,tutorials an a practical.

The research project (140 creits) spans both semesters from the start of the course (late September) until the en of August the following year. This is an opportunity to complete a major piece of inepenent research uner the supervision of a member of acaemic staff. The project can be unertaken wholly or partially in an inustrial company’s laboratory.

Stuents also take 20 creits Grauate School Generic Training moules.

Funamentals of Biomolecular Science D24BT7 (20 Creits)

This moule covers: Macromolecular size an shape. Basic Physical Biochemistry (1st & 2n laws of thermoynamics). Water as a solvent: pH,ionic strength. Concentration of solutions of macromolecules an its measurement. Dilute solutions. Solubility: Raoult's & Henry's laws. Colligative properties: Osmotic pressure. Non-ieality of macromolecular solutions. The volume an charge effects of macromolecules. Basic Laboratory Skills,hanling experimental ata,Error an approximations. Criteria for rejecting ata. Inices,logarithms. Statistical funtion keys on calculators. Macromolecular hyration. Heterogeneity of macromolecular solutions - molecular weight averages. Flexibility of linear macromolecules - persistence length an raius of gyration. Absolute an relative methos for etermining the molecular weight of macromolecules. Hyroynamic an imaging techniques. SDS PAGE,Analytical Ultracentrifugation. Basic Colloial Science,Phase Separation.

Statistics an Experimental Design for Bioscientists (10 creits)

This moule explains the major principles an techniques of statistical analysis of research ata without becoming too involve in the unerlying mathematics. Now that computer software is very well establishe for ata analysis,it is more important to unerstan WHAT a statistical test is oing (an thus whether or not it is appropriate) than to be able to perform the unerlying calculations by han. It is equally important to collect ata in an appropriate an planne manner for later analysis. At the en of the course,participants shoul have an overall grasp of the major analytical techniques available,an how they relate to each other,an have evelope abilities in experimental esign,ata analysis using appropriate software an presentation of results.

Writing an Reviewing Research Proposals (10 creits)

This moule aims to evelop your skills in analysis an writing of research proposals. Specific areas covere inclue: how to evelop a research iea an write a grant application an peer review of research proposals.
