Molecular genetics is the study of genes at a molecular level. Its the study of their structure and function. Through this study, we see how they pass on information and how they make sure other processes in cells are regulated effectively.
Our Molecular Genetics BSc course curriculum is shaped by the work of our world-leading researchers to make sure you’re learning the latest advances. This will also help you gain an understanding of the fundamentals of the field.
