Bachelor of Medical Sciences Honors Specialization in Biochemistry

Western University

The basic medical sciences look at the molecular, cellular, and systems organization of the human body and the biological mechanisms it uses to adapt to environmental changes and disease. The Medical Sciences Program leads to the four-year BMSc degree, which is offered jointly by the Faculty of Science and the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry and is designed for students (testimonial) interested in advanced study of one or more of the basic medical sciences.Personalized medicine informed by genome analysis. Designer organisms that produce valuable medications or clean up environmental toxins. Rational drug discovery to correct specific cellular malfunctions. Crucial to all such advances in biotechnology is an understanding of how life works at the molecular level. Join us in Biochemistry at Western as we explore the intricate interplay among the molecules that sustain life.
