The PhD Program in Personalized Medicine and Public Health offers a unique educational pathway, distinctly different from other first and second-level degree programs. By integrating seminar-style classroom teaching with the development of research lines in the field of personalized medicine, the program aims to train professional researchers with a solid foundational knowledge of the pathophysiological mechanisms of aging and non-communicable diseases. These researchers will be capable of integrating epidemiological and clinical data with those derived from multiparametric omics analyses, in order to generate tools for personalization in healthcare.

Given the multidisciplinary nature of the subject, the PhD program in Personalized Medicine and Public Health is structured into several thematic areas, each focused on specific aspects of personalization in the field of new therapies and prevention in Public Health. The thematic areas include:

1) Personalized Medicine in Non-Communicable Diseases,
2) Personalized Occupational and Environmental Health,
3) Pediatric and Transition Medicine,
4) Aging and Frailty,
5) Ethics of Personalized Medicine in Chronic Disease and Aging.
