Over the last two decades, productive interactions among the different biological disciplines greatly increased understanding of the main molecular mechanisms underlying human, animal, microorganism and plant vital functions. This multidisciplinary approach not only amplified basic knowledge, but also allowed the development of new biotechnological applications that are having a major impact in the fields of human health, nutrition and energy. The three-year PhD program in Genetics, Molecular and Cellular Biology offers a variegated and multidisciplinary approach to investigate biological issues al the molecular and cellular levels. The integrated approach offered by the program has the objective of training young researchers who are capable to tackle challenges that arise from the “new biology”, a modern discipline aiming at a deeper understanding of complex biological phenomena by means of multiple expertise. PhD students, through lab research activity and dedicated and well defined courses in the three-year program, have the opportunity to acquire knowledge on frontline topics and technologies, an essential background to perform high-level research in our rapidly evolving society. The PhD thesis is also in English.
