Phd in

Molecular Medicine

Doctoral training in molecular medicine, genetics, omics and translational research.

The Ph.D. in Molecular Medicine is an advanced research-based doctoral program combining coursework and thesis.

It prepares candidates to investigate molecular, genetic, biochemical, immunological, and cellular mechanisms of disease, apply modern omics and laboratory technologies, and produce high-quality research contributing to diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and health innovation.

Research-based doctoral program combining advanced coursework and a 24-credit thesis.

Research areas include medical genetics, biochemical genetics, immunology, nanomedicine, and cytogenetics.

Prepares graduates for careers in academia, research institutions, healthcare diagnostics, biotechnology, public health, and science policy.

Strong focus on molecular genetics, omics technologies, disease mechanisms, and translational research.

Training in ethics, bioinformatics, good laboratory practice, research methodology, statistics, and scientific communication.
