MRes in Tissue Engineering for Regenerative Medicine (TERM) Course -
University of Manchester, UK

The MRes in Tissue Engineering for Regenerative Medicine (TERM) is a collaborative one year full-time postgraduate degree programme that brings together expertise from across the University. The Masters of Research in Tissue Engineering for Regenerative Medicine (MRes TERM) aims to provide high quality training in novel strategies and technologies aimed to repair, replace and ultimately regenerate tissues and organs. To achieve this, novel approaches are championed in order to exploit advances in synthetic biology and engineer advances in biological functionality. Such ambition requires a commitment to interdisciplinary training and convergence of expertise spanning the biological, computational, mathematical, biomaterial and physical sciences. The MRes is well equipped to provide this, with academic collaboration from across the University including the UK Centre for Tissue Regeneration; North West Embryonic Stem Cell Centre, the Healing Foundation Centre and the UK Centre for Tissue Engineering (UKCTE). Since its inception in 2007, the MRes has successfully woven cohorts of students from disparate scientific and engineering backgrounds to apply their expertise to biological problems and generate novel clinical solutions. Through a combination of interactive seminar programmes, multi-disciplinary laboratory-based project placements and extensive industrial collaboration, the course provides critical training capacity in a discipline that shows enormous future potential. The University of Manchester has a vast research network in this field, comprising international experts from multiple disciplines and so is extremely well-placed to deliver a truly unique MRes course of exceptional quality.
