The Master in Genetics and Molecular Biology provides students with:
- an in-depth knowledge of the unicellular and multicellular organisms that may be used as models to study basic mechanisms of gene expression or cell development, differentiation and transformation
- the acquisition of genetic concepts and methodologies, with special regard to those used in the genetic dissection of complex processes and to study human populations
- an in-depth knowledge of the molecular bases of the main processes involved in the regulation of nucleic acid and protein structure and function
- the knowledge of basic methodologies to study and manipulate biological macromolecules
- the ability to investigate and develop basic methodologies which may be usefully applied to biomedical and biotechnological research
- the acquisition of genetic-molecular skills for the diagnosis and treatment of genetic diseases
- the skills suitable to identify the biological processes grounding the physiopathology of organs and systems, with special regard to human beings
