Molecular and Cellular Basis of Diseases

The Molecular and Cellular Basis of Diseases (MCBD) PhD program has been successfully running since 2002 and provides excellent training opportunities for students from all over the world. As a PhD student you will have the opportunity to work on exciting research projects in biochemistry, molecular cell biology, and oncology, including aspects of anticancer-immunity.

The multi-disciplinary nature of our program combines basic hypothesis driven research with clinical research and will allow you to acquire a broad skill-set to launch your successful career in basic and applied biomedical sciences.

Your research project will be supervised by one of your faculty members and a PhD committee. Comprehensive training is accomplished through a core curriculum that includes selected lectures and hands-on methods courses. A dynamic seminar program with presentation and discussion of research projects complements this training plan. Direct interactions with your peers and faculty are part of the daily live in the MCBD-affiliated laboratories throughout the year at the Medical University of Innsbruck.

A special research focus within MCBD is the FWF funded PhD program Cellular Basis of Diseases (CBD) with its interdisciplinary PhD projects on the molecular control of metabolism & inflammation. More information on the CBD PhD program can be found here.

Lectures and Courses

Course registration

MCBD Seminar

It is mandatory to attend the MCBD seminar throughout your PhD. You need to present your research progress every year – starting with a presentation of your research project in the first year. Keep in mind to sign the attendance sheet.

Core Lecture II & II

You are required to attend the MCBD core lectures (I&II) during your first year – keep in mind to sign the attendance sheet.

Method Courses

To enroll in a methods course, please send an e-mail (containing the course title you are interested in) to the PhD School office (phd-school@i-med.ac.at). Please keep in mind to register no later than 3 days after the semester kick-off.

Joint Group Seminars

Your are required to attened group-meetings of other MCBD groups 4x per semester (over 3 years). Please use the Joint Group Seminar Form and submit it to the MCBD office at the end of semester.
