About Biochemistry, MSci - at Queen's University Belfast

Biochemistry is the molecular basis of life. It applies chemical principles to some of the most exciting problems in the life sciences industry. Biochemistry explains how drugs work, helps us understand what goes wrong in diseases, and enables 'genetic engineering'. Consequently, the subject is essential to drug discovery, biotechnology and biomedical research. Biochemists investigate the structures, functions and biological roles of molecules involved in metabolism, cell signalling and the transmission of genetic information. The MSci in Biochemistry enables students to gain an extensive understanding of the concepts and theories relating to Biochemistry and the application of a range of practical laboratory skills.
