Description
The practical project forms a major part of the Integrated BSc in Mathematics, Computers and Medicine. This project will provide first-hand experience at the interface between biomedical research (especially laboratory- based research) and mathematical and computational analysis. The student will undertake a project supervised by a research-active scientist who is using mathematical or computational approaches to investigate a problem of biomedical interest. The project may include elements of laboratory-based work, but may also include projects, which are purely computational and/or mathematical. Projects may be supervised by appropriate individuals from across the range of Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø faculties.
Intended learning outcomes
- Skills, knowledge and experience of carrying out an independent inter-disciplinary research using computational and/or mathematical techniques to investigate an open research question in biomedicine.
- Skills and experience in written and oral presentation of research.
- Critical appraisal of research limitations, including ethical and data privacy issues as applied to research.
- An understanding of the fundamentals of carrying out hypothesis driven science in a rigorous and reproducible way.
