Profile
The programme will immerse you in the scientific biomedical research. You will carry out research in a domestic or foreign laboratory, gain in-depth knowledge of the field, strengthen your scientific skills and learn the newest methodologies. The programme provides exceptional preparation for researchers, but also for those seeking an optimal scientific biomedical background in order to work or teach in the area of human disease and health, including healthcare policy.Biomedical sciences underwent a spectacular evolution during the past decades. New diseases such as bird flu arose, whereas others such as AIDS and diabetes have expanded. At the same time, researchers are discovering new ways to fight these diseases. The human genome has been decoded, gene technology is steadily growing and the first steps in the direction of stem cell therapy have been made. The laboratories at KU Leuven and University Hospital Gasthuisberg deliver cutting edge work in the field of disease and development of new therapies, stretching from bench to bedside. The Master of Biomedical Sciences at KU Leuven allows students to live this journey themselves, hands on.
