Charles University Second Faculty of Medicine
PhD in Biochemistry and Pathobiochemistry
- Prague, Czech Republic
PhD
Full time
4 years
Blended, On-Campus
English
Doctoral study program in Biochemistry and Pathobiochemistry deals with the chemical and biological characterization of biomolecules and their building units in health and diseases. The program deals with their mutual transformation, with their role in the regulation of physiological processes, and with their disorders. An important task is to study the biological membranes, subcellular components (organelles), energy transformations, and the role of extracellular matrix and second messengers in the cell regulations. Branch also focuses on the role of free radicals in carcinogenesis and atherogenesis. The study program is closely related to molecular biology and genetics as well as to many basic and clinical biomedical fields, especially to clinical biochemistry. The program is carried out without any specialization.

Charles University First Faculty of Medicine
PhD in Biochemistry and Pathobiochemistry
- Prague, Czech Republic
PhD
Full time
4 years
Blended, On-Campus
English
The objective of studies in the study program of Biochemistry and pathobiochemistry is the preparation of the student for an autonomous scientific explanation of molecular principles of life processes in the human organism, their direction, and molecular mechanisms of their disorders. Biochemistry and pathobiochemistry are concerned with the issues of biomacromolecules, i.e. proteins and enzymes, polysaccharides, lipoproteins, and nucleic acids, as well as their component units and other important low molecular weight substances in living systems (amino acids, peptides, saccharides, lipids, steroids). The objective of the field is also an explanation of their mutual changes and their role in cell signaling. Another very important sphere is the research into super-molecular cell structures and their function. The program also focuses on the principles of disorders of the said structures and their functions, i.e. on the molecular nature of the origin, development, and course of pathologic states. One important part of the study is the physiological and pathogenetic importance of reactive forms of oxygen and nitrogen; the subject of the study program is mechanisms of action of the substances that damage the nucleic acids and biomembranes. In the study program, attention is paid to research into disorders of cell signaling, including cancerogenesis and atherogenesis, molecular nature of hereditary and acquired metabolic disorders, mechanisms of maintenance of stable internal environment (metabolic and ionic balance), and the allied pathologic disturbances. The program also deals with the development of new laboratory diagnostic methods.

Major research emphases include signal transduction, biochemistry and pathobiology, gene regulation, cell systems biology, cell and tissue ultrastructure, membrane structure and function, molecular aspects of neurobiology and endocrinology, genetics and metabolism of microorganisms, virology and immunology and enzymology with an emphasis on protein dynamics and folding, as well as cytochrome P-450s.
Louisiana State University
Ph.D. In Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
- Shreveport, USA
PhD
English
The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at LSU Health Shreveport is dedicated to two central goals. First, we investigate the fundamental molecular mechanisms that enable cells and organisms to grow, reproduce, and interact with their environment. The knowledge gained from our studies will deepen our understanding of biology, generate novel reagents and products, and, most importantly, improve human health. Our research is focused on solving major problems in human disease, primarily cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative and genitourinary diseases.
