Undergraduate Advanced Experimental Biology
Our Undergraduate Advanced Experimental Biology (UAEB) programme provides an exciting taste of hands-on research.
It is a unique opportunity to experience what research encompasses and advance your skill-sets in specific areas of biology. The typical 1-week intensive, small class workshops, held during vacation breaks are very much sought after by students.
3 Academic Units (AUs) are awarded for each course
20 Students per class for effective professor-student engagement
9 UAEB across disciplines:

9 UAEB across disciplines:
- Applied Immunology
- Methods in Histology
- Protein behaviour in health and disease - biophysics tools
- Effect on anti-mitotic drugs on cancer cells
- Science of aging and life extension in C. elegans
- Role of Actin Cytoskeleton Regulators in Metastasis
