Program Description

The structure of the program is decided after discussions with students, taking into account their particular background, interest and career goals. Usually students attend two of the advanced third year courses in either microbial genetics, microbial physiology, environmental microbiology, immunology, medical bacteriology or virology. The rest of the year is spent carrying out a research project supervised by a member of academic staff.

The School of Microbiology and Immunology has a number of research teams working on a range of well-funded projects in microbiology, molecular biology and immunology. The diverse research interests of the School can be grouped into the areas of Helicobacter pylori and gastroduodenal disease, immunology of allergic responses, environmental microbiology and remediation, microbiology of extremophiles, water-borne viral pathogens, probiotics, molecular microbiology and genomics, bacterial communication systems, marine microbiology and biotechnology.
