MRes PGCert Experimental Medicine (Cancer)

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

Course Description

Our MRes Experimental Medicine (Cancer) programme will give nurses, doctors, clinical researchers and clinical trials co-ordinators the skills needed to work in early phase clinical studies.

You will learn how to master experimental medicine with a focus on cancer through a combination of traditional teaching and hands-on learning.

The taught units will see you learn the details of designing and delivering Phase 1 clinical studies, understanding the pre-clinical data required before a clinical programme can commence, and how to optimise early clinical studies to provide evidence for progressing a promising drug into Phase II/III clinical testing.

You will also be allocated to one or more clinical trials that are being conducted by The Christie Experimental Cancer Medicine team.

Entry Requirements

We require an honours degree (minimum Upper Second) or overseas equivalent in: life sciences, pharmaceutics, biotechnology, pharmacy. This can be from any UK university or institution approved by The University of Manchester. We also require you to hold existing qualifications to conduct clinical research as a General Medical Council-registered physician, Nursing and Midwifery Council-registered nurse or clinical trial coordinator, including evidence of current good clinical practice training. Relevant experience and commitment to cancer research will be beneficial.
