Molecular oncology is an interdisciplinary field that integrates molecular biology, genetics, biotechnology, medicine, and biochemistry to explore the causes, progression, and treatment responses of cancer at the cellular and molecular levels. The program focuses on the development of molecular markers for early diagnosis, identification of genetic risk factors, design of personalized therapeutic strategies, and establishment of innovative diagnostic and treatment approaches.
The program aims to educate highly qualified scientists equipped with advanced knowledge in basic and clinical oncology, capable of designing experimental research, analysing and interpreting data, and actively participating in interdisciplinary studies. Students are encouraged to conduct original research projects, translate their findings into clinical applications, and maintain scientific productivity at both national and international levels.
The Ph.D. Program in Molecular Oncology aims to contribute to understanding the molecular basis of cancer, develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic protocols, and train a new generation of researchers who will advance the field of cancer research.
