    Heyyy :)

    I need to chose what streams i want to specialise in for my course.

    So far i've picked Microbiology and Pharmacology, and theres one more i have to pick.

    I'm torn between picking - Genetics, Neuroscience or Physiology, and was wondering if anyone could give me advice about each? i have looked into all of them in great detail and i find aspects of each very interesting and would love to study them all. I'm just struggling to decide which would tie in best with what i've chosen and what would end up being a good career prospect too.

    Any help/advice would be much appreciated :D

    Thanks :rolleyes:

    Pharmacology would complement either Neuroscience or Physiology. Being a geneticist I am, of course, biased towards it. Perhaps if you tell us want you want to do after uni, it might give us a better idea of what the best subjects would be.

    Genetics is great, as I see it you can not really get any more basic in biology, it is the nuts and blots of a cell in a way, along with its products of course, proteins.

    Gotta agree with IrishKnight, another fascinating area now is Digital Biology. Doesn't seem to be many courses here though.
