Research Proposal

This course provides students the opportunity to develop an original research proposal. Students will enhance their skills in interpreting, synthesising and critically analysing published literature and subsequently apply their knowledge to new questions in biology. Workshops will consist of discussing research ideas, learning strategies for robust experimental design and analyses, and peer-review activities designed to enhance writing and communication skills. Your research proposal should demonstrate a thorough understanding of the background and proposed techniques of your project and emphasise the chemical, biochemical and material science applications of your research.
