MSc Translational Neuroscience

This course is designed to provide high quality training to tomorrow's neuroscientists, who will play a vital role in not only understanding what causes neurological and psychiatric disorders, but also developing better treatments and cures. Uniquely, this course will provide theoretical and practical training to students in the various methodologies utilised in translational research for the development of novel therapeutic approaches to treat neurological and psychiatric conditions. The programme consists of two sections: a taught component containing six modules, and a research component, with both components carrying equal weighting for your final grade. This course will consequently provide excellent training for students, whether they wish to pursue an academic or industrial research career, in which they can play a vital role in better understanding the causes of neurological disorders, or developing better treatments or cures.
