MRes in Biochemistry and Cell Biology

he MRes in Biochemistry and Cell Biology is the first scientific, research-intensive course of its kind in Ireland and aims to recruit highly-motivated, enthusiastic students with an interest in research. With internationally-recognised researchers in the School of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, the MRes combines a 12-month research project with select taught modules to enhance each student’s individual skill set.A 12-month research project in the areas of bioanalysis, bioinformatics, proteomics, cancer biology, cell signalling, gene expression, trafficking, molecular genetics, neurobiology, RNA, translational control, or synthetic biology A strong focus on development of presentation and writing skills required for a successful research career, including research proposal writingGeneral and transferable skills in laboratory techniques and safety, research ethics and integrity, information literacy and science communication.The MRes in Biochemistry and Cell Biology is comprised of an orientation and induction week, four course modules (two core modules and two electives), attendance at seminars and a research project and dissertation. Students will participate in a university-wide research induction event, complete a laboratory health and safety training session, and meet with the MRes coordinator to discuss their research student learning plan, including selection of modules.The MRes in Biochemistry and Cell Biology is designed to give students a research-intensive experience but at a degree level lower than a PhD. Taught modules are focused on generic and transferable research skills, rather than discipline-specific knowledge. There is an emphasis on data analysis, interpretation, problem-solving and time- and project-management. Students also develop skills in presenting and writing science, posing a research question and development of a research proposal. Students completing the MRes in Biochemistry and Cell Biology will be competitive to secure funding, obtain a PhD position or enter directly into employment within the biotechnology or pharmaceutical sectors.
