Education objectives
The PhD Program in Molecular Biosciences is a flexible, state-of-the-art, research oriented program in life sciences, aimed at highly motivated students.
The MolBioS program fills the gap between molecules and living systems, training students in molecular approaches needed to understand the mechanisms of life. The program provides an updated overview of the fundamental aspects of biological processes, followed by more specific training in one of three specialties: Biology, Biochemistry and Biotechnology.
The program prepares versatile and transdisciplinary scientists with the tools required for developing research and innovation at the interface of various disciplines.
