In this post-genomic era, the massive amount of biological information has greatly advanced the medical research. Translational medicine, also referred as translational science or translational research, is a rapidly developing biomedical discipline that attempts to build a bridge between laboratories and clinical application. The ultimate goal is to accelerate research innovations transforming into clinical needs including new health products, medications, and theranostic methods, or to solve existing health problem by basic research. This program aims to provide students with insight into state-of-the-art research and to develop interdisciplinary capacity in the field of translational medicine.
The courses contain two parts:
(1) Professional lectures covering
(2) Laboratory internship
At the beginning of this program, students need to choose an advisor from the faculties of TMU Translational Medicine Program for conducting a research project. The students will be trained in basic laboratory skills and safety issues and given guidance on experimental design, data handling, and statistical analysis. At the end of internship, students are required to present their work orally in the public.
