Ph.D. in Cellular Oncology is a research-focused program dedicated to understanding the cellular mechanisms involved in cancer development, progression, and metastasis. Typically lasting 3-5 years, the program covers areas such as cell signaling, cancer cell biology, tumor microenvironment, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and the genetic and epigenetic factors contributing to cancer. Students engage in original research to investigate how cancer cells evade normal growth control, develop resistance to therapies, and interact with their environment. The program also explores cutting-edge topics like cancer stem cells, immuno-oncology, and personalized cancer therapies. Graduates of the program often pursue careers in academia, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, cancer research institutes, or clinical research in oncology. Admission generally requires a Master's degree in cell biology, molecular biology, or a related field, with strong research experience in cancer biology and laboratory techniques.
