CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR MEDICINE FACULTY OF LIFE SCIENCES
Cellular and Molecular Medicine
An internationally recognised centre for research in infection and immunology, cancer biology, stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, we are at the forefront of research that turns science into medicine.
Why study Cellular and Molecular Medicine at Bristol?
Our cellular and molecular medicine courses are flexible and you can transfer between them as your interests develop.
Lectures reflect the latest research, which aims to translate laboratory discoveries into clinical application. Tutorials in small groups provide opportunities to improve your communication skills and gain confidence in data handling. Laboratory sessions underpin learning during the first two years and are integrated with eBiolabs, our dynamic laboratory manual, developed at the University:
bristol.ac.uk/ ebiolabs.
In your final year you will undertake a dissertation or research project, working in a group in the department or a nearby hospital. Your work may contribute to a scientific publication.
Throughout the year, you will be assessed using oral presentations, essays and pre- and post- laboratory work. Your academic personal tutor will follow your progress, support your personal development planning and will be available to give you advice throughout your time at Bristol.
All courses are available as four-year degrees with Study in Industry, which gives you the opportunity to gain valuable experience of cellular and molecular medicine in commercial or government research as an employee in a research institute. Entry to these courses is by transfer once you have secured a placement during your second year.
Many of our graduates go on to study for an MSc or PhD prior to a career in biomedical research or go on to study medicine. Other graduates find employment in industrial, academic or clinical laboratories or choose to apply their transferable skills in non-scientific careers.

BSc Cancer Biology and Immunology/ BSc Cancer Biology and Immunology with Study in Industry A-levels AAB (BBB†
or ABC† ) IB 34 (31† )
In your first year you will develop a broad understanding of the biology of normal and cancerous cells. In addition to studying the immune system, you will take units in pathology, microbiology and biochemistry.
In your second year you will study the cellular and molecular basis of cancer and its therapy, as well as autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, diabetes and arthritis, and human cancers caused by viruses such as papilloma and hepatitis B. In addition to molecular genetics, you will choose an optional unit such as anatomy, biochemistry, pharmacology or a language. All practical teaching in years one and two is supported by the eBiolabs dynamic laboratory manual.
Study in Industry students spend their third year on a placement. In your final year you will choose your options from a range that reflects our research strengths and undertake a research project or dissertation.
BSc Cellular and Molecular Medicine/ BSc Cellular and Molecular Medicine with Study in Industry A-levels AAB (BBB†
or ABC† ) IB 34 (31† )
In your first year you will gain a broad training in biomedical science and will begin to study the cellular and molecular basis of human diseases, as well as basic biochemistry, cell biology, pathology, immunology, microbiology and virology. In your second year you will study molecular genetics and learn skills in recombinant DNA technology, which underpins research in many cutting-edge laboratories. Our eBiolabs dynamic laboratory manual is available to help you prepare for practical laboratory sessions in the first and second year.
Study in Industry students will spend their third year on a placement. In your final year you will select units from approximately ten different options. These units and your final-year research project reflect our research strengths in the areas of cancer biology, stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, and infection and immunology.
