Overview

We are committed to providing high quality training of the next generation of research leaders in cardiovascular science. The MRes in Cardiovascular Science explores the cardiovascular system and relevant disease and is suitable for graduates in Biological Sciences and other related disciplines, such as bioengineering. You will receive training in cardiovascular disease physiology and pharmacology, data analysis techniques and a range of research methods utilised to both understand disease mechanisms and translate these findings into clinical benefit.

Key facts

Studying with us, you will join an internationally leading centre of cardiovascular research. You will be taught by a diverse range of both clinical and non-clinical staff, who will provide insight into their own research, highlighting the world leading and inter-disciplinary research that takes place at Leicester. Our research covers a broad spectrum, from the molecular and cellular basis of disease to clinical interventions and has a major impact on the treatment of patients nationally and globally. The Department of Cardiovascular Sciences has strong links to the NHS and leads the Cardiovascular Theme of the National Institute for Health Research Leicester Biomedical Research Centre, which provides opportunities for collaborative working between laboratory, translational and clinical scientists. The course is divided into a taught phase (semester 1) and two 11-week research projects (semester 2). These two separate research projects allow you to potentially explore different aspects of cardiovascular research in more depth. As well as expanding your research techniques, you will have the opportunity to contribute to world-leading research taking place at the University.
