About Bsc Biological Sciences (genetics) in The University of Edinburgh
Genetics is the study of biological variation and its inheritance, and hence of the fundamental control mechanisms of living systems. It is central to biology and disease formation and relates to other subjects, including:
- biochemistry
- molecular biology
- microbiology
- plant biology
- zoology
Genetics impacts on almost every aspect of our lives - from human genetics and health, infectious disease, what we eat and drink, how we live - to how we think of ourselves. It is involved in controversial areas such as the use of genetically engineered crops and the biological and ethical issues around human therapeutic cloning. Genetics students, in addition to being informed about the basic science, are encouraged to consider how these issues impact on society.
