PhD Translational Medicine and Surgery - (ENG)

 

 

Brief presentation of the doctorate:

The PhD programme in Translational Medicine and Surgery is established at the Department of Biomedical and Surgical Sciences of the University of Perugia. It lasts three years. The doctorate provides two training curricula: Translational Medicine and Translational Surgery.

 

The XXXV cycle has been activated for the AY 2019/2020

The PhD programme in Translational Medicine and Surgery represents a post-graduate advanced training course on wide-ranging research issues and high social impact concerning diseases that, in epidemiological terms, occupy the first ranking positions in terms of diffusion and, according to the projections of the WHO, are likely to further increase; therefore the employment opportunities for qualified experts in this subject either in public or private research institutions for PhD students are also expected to increase. The students of the course, becoming themselves protagonists, will propose and conduct original scientific research after careful examination of the international literature. The subject of the PhD course provides skills in research areas strategic at European level, such as the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, the development of nanosciences, nanotechnologies, nanomaterials and new biotechnological productions, the prevention and treatment of some infectious or oncological disorders of wide diffusion, the application and development of innovative surgical techniques, novel approaches to precision medicine. Job opportunities can be found in academia, in private research centers and in national and international pharmaceutical industries. Calls for temporary or permanent positions published by scientific associations, scientific journals, pharmaceutical industries and universities are regularly made known to our post docs. A monitoring system for professional outlets that doctoral students will be able to achieve will be implemented.
