About us

BioMedChem Doctoral School of the University of Lodz and Lodz Institutes of the Polish Academy of Sciences provides support and guidance to those seeking a PhD in Exact and Natural Sciences or Medical and Health Sciences that prepare dissertations in the following disciplines:

Biological Sciences
Medical Sciences
Chemical Sciences

BioMedChem Doctoral School is an interdisciplinary school, which has a unique curriculum offer. Doctoral students of the school gain knowledge from one of the three above mentioned disciplines, which is simultaneously closely related to the two remaining ones. Joint seminar classes constitute a platform to expand knowledge in these three fields, so far frequently considered separate ones. It is a valuable supplementation of the gained knowledge that leads to better and fuller understanding of processes and phenomena taking place at the interface between animate nature and its surroundings.

What is important is that institutions that form the School (University of Lodz, Institute of Medical Biology of Polish Academy of Sciences, Centre of Molecular and Macromolecular Studies Polish Academy of Sciences, European Regional Centre for Ecohydrology) allow its research equipment use and carrying out research under the guidance of world-renowned scientists.
