George Kollias, PhD
Postgraduate Program Director
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I am delighted to welcome you to the official information portal of the MSc Program in Molecular Biomedicine, a joint initiative of the Medical School of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens and the Biomedical Sciences Research Center "Alexander Fleming".
In recent years, groundbreaking advances in biomedical science and emerging technologies have highlighted the intricate molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying human disease. These developments present both new challenges and exciting opportunities for identifying novel therapeutic targets and developing innovative treatments.
Our MSc Program was created in response to this rapidly evolving landscape. It offers a vibrant and intellectually stimulating international environment where students are immersed in a rigorous exploration of disease mechanisms. Through a systems-level approach to pathophysiology, combined with cutting-edge tools for therapeutic discovery, we aim to cultivate deep scientific insight and translational thinking.
We welcome applicants from diverse academic backgrounds who demonstrate strong intellectual curiosity and academic excellence. Our goal is to foster a global community of learners who are eager to engage in cross-disciplinary, cross-cultural scientific dialogue.
This unique program is designed to prepare the next generation of biomedical researchers, innovators, and entrepreneurs. Students receive multidisciplinary training that includes advanced biomedical technologies, disease modeling, clinical validation, large-scale omics analysis, imaging platforms, clinical trial design, and dedicated instruction in innovation, entrepreneurship, and technology transfer.
Our faculty and research mentors—distinguished scientists of international caliber—are committed to guiding students through a transformative educational experience. In addition, guest lectures by world-renowned experts further enrich the academic journey.
In the following pages, you will find detailed information about the program structure, faculty, and application process. We look forward to receiving your application and are happy to answer any questions or discuss how this program can support your academic and professional aspirations.
