Metabolism - Biopathology and Experimental

The Master's Degree in Metabolism - Biopathology and Experimental (MBE) offered by FMUP equips students from different backgrounds with knowledge on the functional organisation and physiological regulation of the metabolism, the underlying mechanisms and related health problems, therapeutic targets, and the available methodologies for analysis. By the end of the course, students will have acquired a broad perspective of the biopathology of metabolic diseases, which will form the foundation of further study (doctoral and postdoctoral). This master’s degree is aimed at health care professionals working in fields related to metabolic disorders, providing them with specialised training to work in technical and research areas, as a scientific manager or as an organiser of scientific events.
