About

The research-based programme is where students become actively engaged in bidirectional translational medicine. The programme focuses on studies that either bring current issues from patients and medical care to laboratory settings or take scientific discoveries made in the laboratory or clinic and transform them into new treatments and approaches to improve health and medical care in the community.
