The Molecules, Genes, and Cells Program functions as a dynamic nexus, bringing together numerous research groups with diverse yet interconnected scientific interests. Our primary objective is to uncover the intricate molecular mechanisms that govern both physiological pathways and the spectrum of associated diseases. We explore the realms of normal and pathological processes through a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from fields such as

molecular biology, immunology, biochemistry, proteomics, genetics, and neurobiology. Our investigations encompass unicellular and multicellular model organisms, enhanced by the utilization of cutting-edge information technologies and computational methods in the domains of health and life sciences. This lively and inclusive scientific environment, combined with a range of state-of-the-art methodologies, positions the Molecules, Genes, and Cells Program as an exceptional training platform. Undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows engage in rigorous exploration and contribute to the program’s vibrant vitality, shaping the future of biomedical research.
