BSc Hons Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology

This degree is ideal for students who have an interest in chemistry and its applications in biology. Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology are fields populated by chemists who have a good understanding of biology at the molecular level. They ll be of increasing importance for decades to come to address existing and emerging healthcare problems, e.g. cancer, AIDS, TB and avian flu. Chemical biologists and medicinal chemists will develop the next generation of medicines to solve such problems, and will have an impact across a wide range of areas, including the development of environmentally friendly approaches to process chemistry.
