Developed by LiU and other universities, CDIO is the framework for an updated engineering programme that is currently used at universities worldwide. Now LiU is first to implement CDIO in medical education, in its first international BSc programme.

The biomedical programmes at Linkping University organized the first ever LiU life science meeting 2018. They promised to make the event one of a kind and they did deliver on every front. It is now a yearly event.

Provides students with knowledge in biomedicine and related subjects. The programme is suited for a scientific career within the field of life sciences, with emphasis on understanding cellular and molecular mechanisms related to health and disease.

The programme has been designed to provide students with frontline knowledge in biomedicine and related subjects. It unites theoretical knowledge with practical skills, as is most clearly seen in the individual experimental projects.

Courses are taught using several formats, including regular lectures, tutorial groups that apply problem-based learning (PBL), laboratory work and seminar discussions. The laboratory classes use powerful model systems to illustrate modern concepts of medical biology, while PBL promotes lifelong learning. After two initial, mandatory courses, elective courses offer individual study plans and flexibility in creating a profile that increases the employability of all students within the life sciences. Different areas such as cardiovascular biology, stem cells and applied regenerative medicine, medical genetics and neurobiology are covered. Scientific reasoning, ethical attitudes and multidisciplinary collaboration are given particular emphasis, in order to prepare students for an independent and professional future in biomedicine.

The Experimental and Medical Biosciences master's programme is designed to prepare students for careers in the pharmaceutical and health care industries. Graduates will be able to work in biomedical research settings, development or production companies, in the public sector or within academia, through PhD programmes.

When I decided to study in Sweden, I was impressed with the syllabus and course details of my programme at LiU. There was a large selection of courses available and the opportunity to tailor my study plan to suit my study goals.

Jonas Burman is a doctoral student at Linkping University and has been given the opportunity to go on an international exchange to New York. There he will work at a prestigious laboratory and follow in the footsteps of his supervisor, Linda Bojmar.

For the second consecutive year, the biomedicine programmes at LiU have organised a well-attended Life Science Meeting. This year, more than 100 students participated, together with internal and external invited speakers.

Our research spans the entire medical field, from basic experimental research to patient-oriented research, health sciences and public health. We focus on cooperation across professions and faculty borders, a combination that has proved successful.

The Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research has granted SEK 200 million for research in the interface between technology and medicine. LiU scientists are principle investigator in three of the six projects, and co-applicant in a fourth.

LiU will offer the first international bachelor program in Sweden that combines project management skills with practical experience research techniques in the field of biomedicine. The programme is designed in partnership with world-leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies to ensure our graduates have the knowledge and skills required to work at the forefront of biomedical research and innovation.

This Bachelor's programme will provide deep theoretical knowledge and practical experience of state-of-the-art research techniques in fundamental biomedical fields; such as cell and molecular biology, medical biochemistry, physiology, and pharmacology as well as novel areas of drug discovery, systems biology, bioinformatics and digital pathology. Throughout the programme you will also work in project-driven courses to apply your knowledge. To ensure that you can translate research breakthroughs into clinical products and services the program trains students in the latest approaches in project management, clinical trial design, bioentrepreneurship, drug regulation and medical ethics. You will also have the opportunity to spend an entire semester performing research at LiU or at one of our industrial partners, in Sweden or abroad.

Users get access to charts, diagrams, graphs, tables, photos, and other graphical elements essential to psychological research. Additionally, Psychology Database includes full text dissertations representing a range of psychology disciplines including behavioral, clinical, cognitive, developmental, experimental, industrial, personality, physiological, psychobiology, psychometrics and social psychology.

Summary module description:

Biomedical research requires a broad knowledge of the experimental methods and techniques that are used in modern laboratories. This module will provide students with an understanding of the theoretical principles and the practical application of a range of core biomedical research techniques. Each of these techniques will be taught through a combination of lectures (to discuss the theory behind the techniques) and practical classes (to gain hands on practical experience). Throughout the module the general principles of experimental design and good laboratory practice in both academic and industrial applications of science will be emphasised.

Aims:

This module aims to familiarise students with a range of key biomedical research techniques used in both academic and commercial applications of biomedical science. It will enable students to decide on the most appropriate methods to use in conducting their own research. The practical experience gained in this module will enable students to perform their own experiments and conduct their own research. Students will also put into practice what theyve learned by putting together a proposal to solve a scientific problem. At the start of term students will be given a briefing from a team of scientists from industry. They will explain a problem or challenge that they would like solved. Working in small teams students will search the literature and apply their knowledge of different lab techniques to propose a solution to these challenges. This will allow students to see how these important skills can translate into both academic and industry settings.

Assessable learning outcomes:

At the end of the module students should understand the theoretical principles underlying a range of core laboratory techniques, be able to perform them experimentally and apply them to address scientific problems. Students will be able to critically evaluate research methods and be able to select the appropriate methods for addressing a particular research question.

Brief description of teaching and learning methods:

The module will be primarily practical-based in the teaching and research labs in the Hopkins Building. Additional individual study and class preparation (using blackboard site) will be required and participation in class discussion will be encouraged.
