Are you going to bridge the gap between early biomedical research results and clinical practice? Or would you rather study DNA, RNA and/or proteins in the laboratory?

In this Master’s programme in Medical Biology you will work to get a deep understanding of the mechanisms acting in human in health and disease at the molecular, cellular and system levels. Within the Master's Medical Biology, you have a choice between six Master's specialisations.

Something for you?

• Bridge the gap between fundamental biomedical research and clinical treatments.
• Stand out in the human biology field of your choice.
• Complete your internship at one of the research institutes connected to Radboud University.
• Travel abroad thanks to our wide network of cooperating research groups.

After your studies

After graduation, you can take up positions���as researchers at universities, hospitals, and medical���and pharmaceutical companies. You can also apply your academic background to societal issues,���taking positions as supervisors of clinical trials, consultants, policy���officers, communications officers and teachers. 

Possible occupations:

• Researcher in a hospital or a university
• Researcher in a company
• Supervisor of clinical trials
• Health or food consultant or policy officer
• Communications officer at a hospital or a governmental organisation

Possible specialisations:

• Human Biology: The specialisation in Human Biology translates fundamental biomedical discoveries into applied clinical practice and public health issues.
• Medical Epigenomics: The only Master’s specialisation in the Netherlands covering the function of our epigenome, a key factor in regulating gene expression in health and disease.
• Neurobiology: A mechanistic understanding of brain organisation and function is the first step in conquering brain diseases. Are you motivated to work towards this goal from a multi-disciplinary perspective?
• Science in Society: Science and technology have a profound influence on society, but the reverse is also true: society significantly shapes the ways in which science and technology evolve. This specialisation equips you with the tools to become a professional intermediary between science and society.
• Science, Management and Innovation: All organisations struggle with challenges such as sustainability, health, energy, and IT security. Solutions require scientists with an analytical as well as a societal understanding of these issues.
