Training young scientists is one of the missions of the Department of Experimental Oncology (DEO)
PhD students at DEO are enrolled in the European School of Molecular Medicine (SEMM) co-founded by IEO in 2001. PhD students at DEO enjoy access to cutting-edge facilities and scientific services, opportunities to do and learn any experiment useful for their project, and a supportive and stimulating environment. The DEO is a friendly place, small enough to be personal, but integrated in a larger community of students and postdocs in the area of Milano.
SEMM operates within Institutes of excellence to promote higher education in Biomedicine and together with the University of Milan and Naples has created a PhD program in Systems Medicine. Our PhD program offers a personalized doctoral experience by allowing each student to choose from a wide range of courses, creating an educational program that can be tailored to each individual's academic and professional goals. It encompasses a wide array of research areas led by experts in their respective fields, including: molecular oncology, neurobiology, immunology, structural biology, human genetics & genomics and clinical research.
Today, the SEMM PhD program is one of the most prestigious national PhD program for higher education in biomedicine. The selection is very competitive, and successful candidates are rewarded with wealthy resources.
