Medical Biosciences

About this course

Medical biosciences applies the tools and concepts of modern biology to the understanding of human health and disease. It is a discipline that sits at the interface between fundamental biological research and clinical medicine, examining how cells malfunction in cancer, how the immune system responds to infection, how drugs interact with their molecular targets, and how genetic variation shapes disease risk. For students who want to engage deeply with the science that underpins medicine, without following the clinical training pathway, medical biosciences offers a rigorous and intellectually demanding alternative. At Imperial College London, the BSc Medical Biosciences programme is taught within one of the world's leading research universities, with close links to major clinical facilities and a strong culture of scientific enquiry. You will study the molecular, cellular, and physiologi
