ماذا سوف أتعلم؟

Biomedical scientists work at the cutting edge of research and medicine, helping to solve some of the most threatening diseases and conditions facing mankind. St George’s has enjoyed an outstanding track record of research and innovation in infectious disease ever since the ‘father of vaccinology’ Edward Jenner, based here, created the world’s first vaccine (against smallpox). More recently, our research has included a focus on tuberculosis, malaria, HIV in low and middle-income countries and Covid-19.

Course overview

Antibiotics are one of the greatest medical achievements of the 20th century, which have helped save the lives of millions, but overuse and misuse of antibiotics in agriculture and medicine have given rise to a growing number of bacteria with antimicrobial resistance. By 2050, it is estimated that 10 million people worldwide will die per year as a result of being infected with such bacteria.

St. George’s is one of the first universities to offer a unique specialist pathway to support important research into antimicrobial resistance.

This MRes in Biomedical Science (Antimicrobial Resistance) prepares you for research that will lead to better understanding of the molecular basis and mechanisms of microbial resistance to treatments and ultimately to improvement of drug regimens and combinations that could circumvent resistance.

Careers

The course provides excellent preparation for PhD study, which around a fifth of our students complete here at St George’s or elsewhere, and this can lead to a research career within academia or pharmaceutical industry.

Alternatively, on completion, you could pursue a career in the biomedical and medical sector in roles where some research background is required but not necessarily at PhD level. This may include job opportunities as research support staff, technicians, medical laboratory assistants, specialist services provision, equipment operators and laboratory management.

This course is also effective in accelerating the development of your career in healthcare and NHS.
