生物科学（发育生物学，高级学习） MPhil Biological Sciences (Developmental Biology) by advanced study

The MPhil in Biological Sciences provides students with an opportunity to undertake a period of study and research in Developmental Biology, one of the Faculty’s key research pathways. Developmental biology is a remarkably cross-disciplinary area of biomedical research that spans traditional departmental boundaries and many different technologies, such as molecular biology, genetics, epigenetics, cell and stem cell biology, imaging and bioinformatics. This field is increasingly significant in the era of readily available genome sequences, because functional studies of development are essential to decipher the roles of many genes, and will be invaluable if we are to reap the benefits of this wealth of new information.
