Description
This module will provide students with a practical experience of techniques relevant to important stages of drug discovery process by giving them the opportunity to participate in a structured project that takes them from synthesis, testing the effect of compounds on cells, studying cell metabolism through apoptosis, necrosis, proliferation. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to enhance their skills on emerging technologies such as, virtual reality. This module would be particularly beneficial to students with career aspirations in R&D in private organisations and/or Academia.
