PhD Program
The PhD Program
The PhD Program covers all aspects of the Translational Medicine (TM) Cycle. The program helps students become critical consumers of medical research papers, collect primary data on health issues through observation and inquiry, and conduct biomedical research. Participants will explore clinical research design—including systematic reviews, patient registries, and clinical trials—by planning an extended project in study groups led by experienced TM Centre faculty members.
