Biomedicine

The Doctoral Program in Biomedicine aims to provide multidisciplinary training to university graduates with degrees in Biology, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Pharmacy, Physics, Medicine, Dentistry, Chemistry, Veterinary and Engineering in the field of biomedical research. Its particular emphasis is on understanding the molecular mechanisms which cause diseases, as well as on developing optimum strategies for their treatment and cure.

The specific objectives of the program are:

• To provide a doctoral program which integrates molecular and cell research to be applied to the understanding, prevention and/or treatment of human disease.
• To produce biomedical scientists with the ability to act as a link between basic and clinical research.
• To train scientists in the area of university/business interaction (R+D management and research foundations).
• To train scientists who wish to work as teachers in the biomedical field
• To facilitate and promote translational research.

The doctoral studies, which correspond to the third cycle of the official university education for obtaining PhD degree, consist of the development of a set of activities necessary for the achievement of the competences and skills related to research scientific quality that ends with the preparation and defense of the doctoral thesis.

Doctoral studies will be carried out in a laboratory linked to one of the PhD Program Research Areas: Bioinformatics; Molecular and Cellular Biology of Cancer; Biomedical Engineering, Physiology and Pathophysiology, Immunology, Metabolism, Signaling and Associated Pathologies; Neurosciences.

This phase aims to develop skills and aptitudes in biomedical research, enabling the student to:

• understand the value and limitations of the scientific approach
• act in accordance with scientific methodology when defining problems, formulating hypotheses, choosing appropriate strategies and experimental methodologies, obtaining, evaluating and interpreting results, and reaching conclusions
• locate, obtain, organize and interpret biomedical information in databases and other sources
• communicate results using the resources at his/her disposal, with an awareness of the limitations of such resources
• work as part of a group, and interact with scientific colleagues
• maintain an ethical approach, socially and scientifically

The duration of the doctoral studies is a maximum of four years, full-time, or seven years, part- time. The academic committee of the program may authorize an extension of one year if the doctoral student requests it.

When the doctoral student is a person with a degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%, the duration of the studies is a maximum of six years, full-time, or nine years, part-time.

The duration is counted from the date on which the first enrolment is formalized until the date on which the deposit of the doctoral thesis is requested.
