For this direction of specialisation it is about understanding how cells are built by different types of organelles and macromolecules, and how these function and cooperate in different tissues in an animal or human body. You may study different cell types separately, individual organs, like respiratory organs or the brain, or the intact body as a physiological system.
To be able to develop novel drugs against diseases like Alzheimers and Parkinsons diseases,it is important to understand as much as possible of the processes taking place in the brain, when stimulus are stored and signals transmitted, or if you wish to find a way to reduce loss of muscle mass in the elderly, you need to know what makes muscles grow or deteriorate. Cell biological and physiological processes are important for each individual and may be fundamentally disturbed by genetic diseases. Such changes may be studied at both the cellular and the organismal level.
By completing a master's degree in Cell Biology, Physiology, and Neuroscience you will acquire competence which is asked for in biomedical research, both in hospitals, departments, institutes, and pharmaceutical industry.
