Sgiliau ar gyfer Gwyddorau Meddygol
Nod y modiwl hwn yw cynnig profiad cychwynnol i fyfyrwyr o waith gwyddonydd meddygol modern, o gamau cychwynnol cynllunio arbrofion, i gynnal arbrofion mewn labordy ynghyd â chasglu a dadansoddi data ac, yn olaf, gyfleu'r canfyddiadau gwyddonol i gynulleidfa ehangach.
Bydd myfyrwyr yn datblygu set o sgiliau sylfaenol yn y pedwar maes sgiliau ymchwil pwysicaf sef sgiliau labordy ymarferol, dadansoddi data, cydweithio a chyfathrebu. Bydd y modiwl hwn yn un damcaniaethol a chymhwysol, lle bydd myfyrwyr yn cael eu hyfforddi mewn dulliau sy'n hanfodol ar gyfer casglu a dadansoddi data ond hefyd bydd disgwyl iddynt gymryd rhan yn y labordy, gan ddefnyddio dulliau arbrofol â chymhwysiad eang. Yn ogystal, bydd myfyrwyr yn dysgu am iechyd a diogelwch mewn amgylchedd labordy a'r rheoliadau moeseg presennol o ran y defnydd o bobl, meinwe dynol ac anifeiliaid mewn ymchwil feddygol.
Ar ben hynny, bydd myfyrwyr yn datblygu eu set o sgiliau cyfathrebu nid yn unig drwy ysgrifennu traethodau ond byddant hefyd yn datblygu eu sgiliau cyflwyno llafar a'u sgiliau cydweithio drwy gyflwyniad gr¿p a dosbarthiadau tiwtorial.

Genetics, Genomics & Evolution
The module will provide a foundation in genetics and evolution. Concepts such as DNA discovery, structure and replication, gene transcription and translation, mechanisms of gene transmission, genome organisation, epigenetic modifications and mutations will be covered with an appreciation of how these mechanisms have an impact on human disease and antibiotic resistance. The latter part of the module will start with the work of Plato, Cuvier, Lamarck, Wallace and Darwin and how they (and others) influenced the development of an evolutionary theory framework. Using this knowledge the module will then look at the processes involved in speciation and how they can be applied at both the gene and whole organismal level.

PM-344
Capstone Project
The aim of this module is to provide a capstone experience to students¿ learning, through participating in their own enquiry-based research project, with guidance from an academic supervisor. The project may be laboratory or non-laboratory based, but it will always involve a research question that is drawn from the literature, and focused on a topic relevant to the life sciences. It will ask a research question and involve the critical analysis of research findings. Students will refine their oral and written communication skills to a graduate level through an oral presentation and dissertation on their research findings and conclusions.

Bioinformatics: From Sequence to Function
The ever increasing availability of genome sequences and protein structure data demands that molecular biologists are proficient at performing extensive data analyses to guide and support traditional laboratory-based research. This Module will provide the theoretical basis and practical training on computational tools currently used to assemble and interrogate genome sequences, infer gene and protein functions, and to examine protein structure data.
