Aims
The aim of this module is to equip biomedical science students with essential research skills and knowledge of methods and techniques that are routinely applied in biomedical research.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Develop and display an understanding of the fundamental biomedical research methods and techniques that are routinely used in a laboratory setting.
2.
Apply knowledge of fundamental methods and techniques that are routinely used in biomedical research to help design, plan and develop a biomedical research proposal.
3.
Develop and apply scientific writing, presentation and team-working skills.
4.
Demonstrate engagement with interpretation and analysis of scientific results/data including the use of appropriate statistical analysis.
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:
The module will introduce biomedical research and introduce the principles and applications of the main laboratory-based techniques and methods commonly used in biomedical research (e.g. antibody-based techniques, high performance liquid chromatograph, mass spectrometry, flow cytometry, microscopy) as well as new technological advances in biomedical research. Genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic methods will be introduced. The module will also introduce research specific methods and techniques including; research planning, experimental design, measurement and instrumentation, data summarisation/presentation and statistical analysis.
