Cancer Biology and Clinical Oncology
Jointly offered by the School of Medicine and the School of Sciences, the Cancer Biology and Clinical Oncology course from European University Cyprus (EUC) trains candidates to become independent scholars and researchers in biomedical sciences, contributing to progress in the prevention, detection and treatment of cancer.

Biology and Ecology of Global Changes
The PhD Programme in Biology and Ecology of Global Changes is a co-tutoring PhD programme between Universidade de Aveiro (Portugal) and the University of Lisbon (Portugal), with the participation of the Federal University of Tocantins (Brasil) and the University of Brasilia (Brasil).

Life Sciences (Integrated)
Environmental factors influence our health and wellbeing, as well as affect ecosystems and wildlife. An intimate understanding of such factors – chemical substances, for example, or changes in radiation or temperature – is urgently needed to better understand disease trends in humans and adverse effects on wildlife. Life Sciences (Integrated) is offered at Brunel University of London.

Synthetic Biology
The overall aim of the Synthetic Biology degree offered at Brunel University of London is to address major environmental, health and societal challenges by engineering biological systems such that they display functions that do not exist in nature, as well as re-designing existing biological systems so that they perform new functions.

Biology
The Doctoral degree of Biology at Universidade de Aveiro has a duration of 4 years, corresponding to a total of 240 ECTS.

South West Biosciences Doctoral Training Partnership
This South West Biosciences Doctoral Training Partnership is led by the University of Bristol, together with the Universities of Bath, Cardiff and Exeter, alongside Rothamsted Research.

Chemical Biology
The biological chemistry research group conducts research critical to the scientific community, with significant implications to public well-being. Chemical Biology programme is offered at Cardiff University.

Engineering Biology
University of Bristol's Engineering Biology programme is an emerging field at the confluence of Biology, Chemistry, Engineering, AI and Data Science.
