This year-long program focuses entirely on independent research, where you'll conduct a project and document your findings in a thesis. Like a PhD, you'll work with a supervisor specializing in your selected discipline. The MSc by Research enhances both theoretical and hands-on abilities, serving as an ideal pathway if you want to delve deeper into your subject without committing to doctoral studies immediately. Graduates frequently progress to PhD programs or enter professional sectors.

Our investigations focus on cancer's molecular and cellular foundations, along with targeted treatment development. Research spans genome and transcriptome analysis in oncology, structural biology of cancer pathways, mechanisms of cellular communication, disrupted tissue regulation, oncogenic viruses, and the discovery of potential therapeutic compounds.
