PhD

MOSTMICRO - ITQB and its researchers are involved in several PhD degrees in Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology and Engineering and Technological Sciences atributed by ITQB NOVA, Universidade Nova de Lisboa. A PhD student at MOSTMICRO - ITQB is part of the research staff integrating the research groups.

All MOSTMICRO - ITQB PhD students are registered in one of the following PhD Programs

The PhD Program in Molecular Biosciences is a flexible state-of-the-art research oriented program in life sciences. The Program trains students in molecular approaches needed to understand the mechanisms of life.
ITQB NOVA is the coordinating institution.

The Biology at the Host Microbe Interface PhD program was created on the premise that understanding the general principles guiding host-microbe interactions is a major scientific endeavor per se with a potential global translational impact on therapeutic intervention against infectious as well as non-communicable diseases. The B@HMI PhD program aims at fulfilling a current gap of knowledge at the interface of these multidisciplinary scientific areas.

ITQB NOVA is the coordinating institution.

The PhD in Sustainable Chemistry is a multidisciplinary program in the central/broad area of chemistry, aiming at providing new focus on sustainable research strategies towards the development of new chemical, processes and products in line with current needs of the Chemical Industry and the demands of society.
ITQB NOVA is a participating institution.

The PhD Programme on Catalysis and Sustainability (CATSUS) aims to strengthen the advanced teaching and research in modern Catalysis, promoting a synergic cooperation of the different types of Catalysis, in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, by gathering teams with complementary expertises in various institutions and favouring their interaction.
ITQB NOVA is a participating institution.

The PhD in Advanced Integrated Microsystems  provides advanced training in the design and implementation of miniaturized multifunctional devices and systems, fabricated using top-down and bottom-up micro and nanofabrication techiques, to be applied to bioprocessing, biotechnology, biomedicine, pharmaceutical sciences, biosensing for biomedical, environmental and food safety, and physical sensing.
ITQB NOVA is a participating institution

The Doctoral Program in Applied and Environmental Microbiology is an inter-university and inter-research centre program offering multidisciplinary training that includes in-depth understanding of molecular and cellular microbiology and of the contemporary view of genome-based microbiology, microbial diversity and evolution.
