Yes. Different schools come up with different names for the same thing. Biochemistry was originally an "invention:" people created biochemistry departments because they thought it would be easier to get research funding. Nowadays some departments do "biochemistry" some do "biological chemistry." If you ask 100 people what the different is, 50 will say there's no difference, and 50 will start making up differences.

Similarly, in either one of your named fields people are basically applying tools of biochemistry and molecular biology to targeted medical questions. These tools include gels, PCR, protein cloning/expression, cellular biology, etc. And what you do depends more on the specific department and specific research team leaders than it does on the name of the department. In any major university today you'll find people in physics departments doing biology and people in biology doing physics, as well as any major permutation therein. The "Molecular Biomedical Science" program you're thinking about was probably named that after a consulting firm did a marketing study that showed that people thought that sounded cooler than "medical laboratory science." Departments rename themselves fairly frequently too.

Yep, you're able to do biomedical technology and then do graduate get entry to to drugs, its very aggressive nonetheless, you will desire to verify you like biomedicine in the different case you have wasted 3 years. drugs is 5 300 and sixty 5 days direction, nonetheless some unis grant a 6 300 and sixty 5 days direction which incorporates a bsc 300 and sixty 5 days that gets you an extra diploma. Its a stable direction in my view besides the shown fact that i understand some who don't like it and are making plans to do different issues as quickly as they graduate. in case you have your heart set on drugs, purely attempt the terrific you may, practice appropriate at utility time, artwork confusing on your exams, get the artwork adventure and voluntary artwork performed and you have each and every risk of shifting into.
