The Postgraduate Certificate in Precision Musculoskeletal Sciences is designed to provide the required knowledge, skills and attributes that will prepare exceptional next generation healthcare professionals, physicians, and scientists who can address the huge unmet needs in the field of musculoskeletal (MSK) health.
Millions in the UK and billions worldwide suffer from MSK disorders which are the leading contributors to disability and the most prevalent conditions affecting middle-aged people. Despite the rise in life expectancy, the proportion of life spent in poor MSK health and uncontrolled pain has remained constant. This poor MSK health represents a major limiting factor to independence, productive social and working life, and healthy mental status.
Proper understanding, application, and advancement of MSK health sciences is fundamental to tackling these needs.
The fast-evolving landscape of MSK sciences and healthcare has a pressing need for clinicians, biomedical scientists and allied health professionals with up-to-date knowledge and skills to contribute to the establishment of productive MSK health.
The Centre for Experimental Medicine and Rheumatology (EMR) within William Harvey Research Institute (WHRI) and Queen Mary University of Londons Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, which delivers this programme, is one of the top research centres for rheumatology in Europe. It has been awarded Centre of Excellence status by the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) for its outstanding contributions to rheumatology and improving patient care.
