The educational objectives of the PhD Program in Molecular Genetics, Biotechnology, and Experimental Medicine (GMBMS) can be summarized as follows:

• To provide candidates with a multidisciplinary education and, thanks to the expertise of the faculty members, a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of many of the topics addressed in biomedical research, both at the basic level and in applications for diagnostic, translational, and forensic medicine purposes. The multidisciplinary dimension of the doctoral program is further enriched by access to research seminar series delivered by Italian and international scholars at the School of Medicine of the University of Brescia, as well as, when consistent with the doctoral curriculum, by other academic and research institutions in the region.
• To enable candidates to develop a solid foundation in the design, implementation, analysis, and discussion of experimental data generated during their doctoral research.
• To foster candidates’ ability to interact, work collaboratively in research groups, and communicate effectively in scientific contexts through dedicated activities (journal clubs, annual progress reports, and active participation in the doctoral program’s educational activities, where faculty members encourage critical discussion).
• To strengthen candidates’ skills in the writing of scientific articles related to their research projects.
• Whenever possible, to directly involve candidates in the preparation of research grant applications.

The PhD Programme is organized into three curricula.
