About the Program
Three-year research projects in various fields of Biomedicine See homepage The international MD/PhD programme "Molecular Medicine" combines a broad spectrum of research in the fields of Immunology, Infection Biology, Oncology and Stem Cell Biology/ Differentiation, Cell Biology, and Genetics. Students (approx. 60: 20 per year; medical as well as life scientists) work in over 20 different departments of MHH as well as at partner institutes (Fraunhofer Institute for Toxicology and Experimental Medicine, Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research [HZI], Friedrich Loeffler Institute Mariensee [FLI]). The main aim of the programme is to bridge the gap between basic sciences and applied clinical aspects in research training and to foster the necessary interdisciplinary exchange. Projects cover aspects of research on infectious or inflammatory diseases (HIV, hepatitis, diabetes, asthma, atopic eczema, autoimmune diseases, atherosclerosis, etc.), signal transduction or oncology (MAP kinases and targets, WNT signalling, telomere shortening, genetics of breast cancer, genetics and signalling of leukaemia), and stem cell research or differentiation (hepatic differentiation of stem cells, targeting of hematopoietic stem cells - gene therapy, somite and limb patterning, etc.).
