The doctoral program of the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences provides an extremely stimulating, international environment for motivated and outstanding young scientists offering first class opportunities and infrastructure/facilities to match. Research spans the pharmaceutical sciences – from fundamental and translational aspects covering molecular pharmacology, drug discovery including bioactive natural compounds, biopharmacy, drug delivery, pharmaceutical technology, pharmaceutical analytics through to clinical, community and hospital pharmacy – truly going from the bench to the patient. The doctoral program has 100-120 PhD students who are actively encouraged to present at (inter)national meetings, improve scientific/soft skills and build their professional network for their future careers.
