The science behind improvements to patients' clinical care and health outcomes, it is supporting the development of personalised or precision medicine, ultimately saving lives.This Master's degree follows a curriculum designed by Health Education England (HEE) and is taught in partnership with King's College London, giving you access to experts with different specialisms in, for example, bioinformatics and cardiovascular genomics. Both institutions are part of the South East Genomic Laboratory Hub, one of the largest providers of genomic testing in the UK and a national centre for specialist testing for cardiology, gastro-hepatology, haematology, neurology, respiratory and skin conditions.As well as the MSc, the programme is structured flexibly to provide options for PgCert and PgDip awards, which can be tailored to your career or interest.
