Cell biology, cancer biology, microbiology and haematology themes after a foundation year describe the BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science with Foundation Year. Full-time weekday life-science study is at Greenwich, with practical modules, clinical case studies, a research project and NHS guest-lecturer insight referenced. Work-experience themes appear in existing notes without AF Education guaranteeing placements. This is not a psychology, nursing or computing foundation page. Year Zero entry lists five GCSEs at grades A*–C for eligible UK home applicants. AF Education gives UK home students free help with the application and with Student Finance England. Practical laboratory and case-study work after the foundation year keeps biomedical study grounded rather than purely theoretical.
