The advanced courses of the twentieth-first edition of the Doctoral Program in Experimental Biology and Biomedicine (PDBEB) are about to begin, offering training in several areas related to biomedical research. In all, between October 2, 2023 and May 31, 2024, 18 courses will be held.
The PDBEB is based at the Interdisciplinary Research Institute of the University of Coimbra (IIIUC), and is scientifically coordinated by the Center for Neurosciences and Cell Biology of the University of Coimbra (CNC-UC). In its 20 editions, it has trained dozens of researchers, entrepreneurs, academics and science communicators.
“The Doctoral Program in Experimental Biology and Biomedicine is truly interdisciplinary, creating an environment conducive to excellent training in various areas of biomedicine, not forgetting training in entrepreneurship and communication in science. We always have groups of highly motivated students who later get prominent places in various national and international institutions”, says Paulo Oliveira, coordinator of the PDBEB.
The advanced courses are accessible to all students of the PDBEB and other doctoral programs, inside and outside the University of Coimbra. In the academic year of 2023/2024, the training offer includes topics in several areas like technological platforms for research, experimental design, science communication, computational biology, neurosciences, biology of reproduction, metabolism, proteomics, drug development and advanced therapies, among others.
Coordinated by CNC researchers, the courses present scientific programs of one to three weeks, being lectured by national and international experts.
Any additional information about the courses can be consulted on the PDBEB website, on the CNC website and on the CNC's social networks (Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn).
