This
course, running over four mornings, is designed to give bioscientists
and clinicians a broad overview of research techniques and their
application. Basic molecular biology laboratory experience is assumed,
but you should not need prior knowledge of the techniques covered
in the course.
The
objective for postgraduate teaching is to give students a broad
basic knowledge of bioscience research techniques and technologies,
including those not currently used in their own project/laboratory
that may be of future use. We recommend that postgraduate students
attend the whole course (DMMC Course Attendance Certificates
are only provided for complete attendance).
