Molecular Genetics

About this course

Molecular genetics is the branch of biology concerned with how genetic information is stored, replicated, expressed, and regulated within cells, and how mutations in that information give rise to disease, variation, and evolution. It is a rapidly advancing field, shaped by the genomics revolution, which has made it possible to read and eventually to edit the genetic information of organisms in ways that are transforming medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life itself. The three-year full-time Molecular Genetics BSc at King's College London is a multidisciplinary degree that focuses on the advances in biology investigating how the structure and function of genes and the genome regulate the processes and mechanisms of life. You will study how DNA is replicated, repaired, and decoded to make proteins and other molecules within cells and tissues, and how those molecular events i
