Research in the medical sciences tackles the challenges to our bodies' health and wellbeing by investigating the causes of these challenges, how they manifest, and how they might be ameliorated. To successfully tackle these challenges medical science researchers need to be equipped with a toolkit of core transferable research skills. In this unit you will be challenged to identify, access, organise and critically appraise medical science literature in developing a rationale of your own individual research question. You will investigate how you will prosecute your research questions in group-based workshops that demonstrate a broad range of "types" of research questions, the nuances of your design and the appropriate biometrical approaches used to evaluate them. You will complete scenario-based workshops on research integrity and research data management that will instil professionalism in research enquiry. A number of theoretical and practical immersive workshops provided by core research facilities of the Bosch Institute will provide further understanding of current state of the art methodologies that will then be applied in the development of your research proposal. You will also be challenged with ethical dilemmas that form responsible practice in medical science research. On completing this unit you will have acquired a set of core skills that you can employ in a technical or research and development workplace.

In a world increasingly inundated with technology, data and pseudoscience, you, as a medical science graduate, have a very special responsibility to society. You are one of the few that can help to inform and explain difficult concepts to the broader community. The most important quality you need to develop is that of a confident communicator of and advocate for biomedical science. This cutting-edge contemporary unit will equip you with the critical thinking skills and tools to be an effective communicator of your biomedical knowledge and experience to non-experts. You will build on the many skills you have already developed in your university study and learn how to explain your 4th year project work in ways that are simple, engaging and effective. You will explore how responsible research and innovation and critical thinking underpins modern biomedical science and how modern social media techniques can facilitate information exchange. You will learn from other biomedical scientists who have successfully created media profiles. You will also learn from subject matter experts and use resources to guide your learning and practice. Your growth in this unit will be determined by the completion of assessments through which you will unpack complex ideas using contemporary communication tools. The skill to explain sophisticated concepts in simple and effective ways is key to success in every area of biomedicine. This unit will equip you with the tools to be effective communicators of biomedicine as you move into careers and post-graduate pathways.

The Discipline of Anatomy and Histology intensively researches diverse challenges to our health and society in the context of structure-function relationships in biological systems. Our academic supervisors offer projects in the fields of comparative anatomy, forensic osteology, cardiac function, chronic pain, dementia, skin cancer, reproduction, cataract, and marine biology. By undertaking an Honours project in our discipline you will have the opportunity to design and carry out experiments, to collect and analyse appropriate data, to statistically evaluate your experimental results, and to interpret the findings in relation to previous literature. In addition, you will be part of a diverse cohort of young researchers, that will expose you to a variety of advanced scientific methodologies and technical skills, and develop critical appraisal skills of research beyond your own topic. On successful completion of the honours year you will have developed essential research attributes including analytical, critical-thinking, communication and laboratory research skills. You will also leave with in-depth specialist knowledge of your chosen research area and all the tools necessary to pursue post-graduate research or other related medical science careers.
