Experimental medicine develops and applies technology and biological models for studying pathogenic mechanisms in human disease. It involves various disciplines (biochemistry, biology, molecular biology, anatomy, physiology, pathology, immunology, genetics and microbiology/virology) that provide a rapidly growing understanding of the mechanisms that enable the development of pathological processes. The course aims to acquaint students with the technologies and research methodologies in the area of biomedicine and biotechnology based on in vitro and in vivo experimental models and '-omic' approaches, and on their application to the study of cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of human disease.

Advancements in genetics and genomics have spurred the emergence of Precision Medicine, which revolutionizes traditional medical approaches by utilizing vast molecular data for personalized disease diagnosis and treatment. The PhD in National PhD in Systems Medicine aims to equip professionals with interdisciplinary skills in biomedical sciences, preparing them to address precision medicine challenges through technological strategies and multidisciplinary approaches.

This program aims to coordinate advanced learning activities PhD in Veterinary Sciences and Animal Productions, fostering scientific and cultural development through advanced research. It leverages existing collaborations with industry and leading national and international research institutions to develop new partnerships and promotes internationalization by involving foreign scholars and students in research and training activities.

The Pharmacological Biomolecular Sciences, Experimental and Clinical doctoral program trains biomedical experts in modern pharmacological research through multidisciplinary approaches. It encompasses basic research, pharmacological-toxicological studies, innovative drug development systems, and technical-scientific collaboration. Students develop competencies for translating discoveries into clinical practice, benefiting public health and socio-economics.

The aim of this programme is to prepare researchers and scholars specialised in nutrition with international standard methodological know-how, autonomy and specific skills in scientific research on food systems.

The training, which aims at providing advanced methodological knowledge and scientific content in the pharmaceutical Sciences sector, includes theory and research, both centred on the design, synthesis, development and control of new biologically active compounds, new pharmaceutical forms, special foods, cosmetics, biocides and medical devices.

The doctoral program in Translational Medicine trains researchers to bridge the gap between laboratory and clinical sciences, facilitating translational research. Objectives include understanding biological structures, applying diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and addressing ethical implications.

The Human Mind and Its Explanations: Language, Brain and Reasoning doctoral programme offers a theoretical-analytical and technical-methodological preparation rooted in an excellent tradition of international research on empirical sociology. It aims to train researchers in the analysis of current processes of cultural and social change based on the close integration of theory and empirical research. The programme aims to provide a solid theoretical-conceptual preparation along with mastery of the most up-to-date research methodologies and techniques, both quantitative and qualitative.
