The right treatment for the right patient at the right time. How can treatment be tailored to an individual patient, and what will it look like in the future? The Master's Programme in Precision Medicine gives you theoretical knowledge and practical experience in how to generate, analyse and interpret large-scale biological data to diagnose patients and enable individualised treatment. The Master's Programme in Precision Medicine includes advanced courses in medical genetics, cancer biology and molecular diagnostics, with in-depth studies of large-scale molecular mapping and imaging technologies. Early in the programme, you will also learn basic programming and biostatistics, after which computer-based analysis runs throughout the programme. You will learn the basics of machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques with a clear focus on their use in precision medicine. You also have the opportunity to select your own in-depth courses in areas that you are particularly interested in. Through collaboration with both clinicians and active researchers, you will be given the opportunity to analyse real patient data and establish contacts with future employers. The programme gives you: understanding and basic skills in the possibilities and current limitations offered by arti
A Bachelor's degree, equivalent to a Swedish Kandidatexamen, from an internationally recognised university. The degree must be in biochemistry/chemistry, biology, biomedicine/medicine, biotechnology, bioinformatics, cell-/molecular biology, genetics, life science, medical sciences, pharmacy, or a similar field of study. Also required is: courses in biochemistry, cell biology, bioinformatics, chemistry, genetics, and molecular biology/-genetics totalling at least 30 credits; and courses in statistics, mathematics, or computational science totalling at least 5 credits.
Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6. This requirement can be met either by achieving the required score on an internationally recognised test, or by previous upper secondary or university studies in some countries.
