Biomedical science forms the basis of our understanding of how human and animal bodies function, and the responses of the body to various diseases, exercise, diet, internal disturbances and environmental influences.
Every week, newspapers report on innovations and issues such as cancer therapies, reproduction technology, health impacts of various foods, stem cells and cloning.
If you are interested in learning more about genetic engineering, cancer, the role of cells across body systems, neuroscience, DNA profiling or using stem cells, a career in biomedical science research could be perfect for you.
