Overview
The Doctoral Programme trains experts in fields including biological nanoscience, evolutionary research and sustainable use of natural resources.
Key facts
Biological nanoscience is an interdisciplinary field of research that aims to understand the molecular mechanisms of microbes and proteins at the nano level and their practical applications in the fields of biotechnology and medicine, among others.
Evolutionary research explains changes across multiple levels of biological organization, from molecular networks, to individuals, populations and ecosystems.
With a strong tradition of using experimental approaches (both in field and laboratory), evolutionary research formulates new predictions and develops mechanistic tools to understand evolutionary dynamics of complex systems.
