Description

Γενικές Διατάξεις

Το ΠΜΣ με τίτλο: «Κλινικές εφαρμογές Μοριακής Ιατρικής» του Τμήματος Ιατρικής του Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλίας, λειτουργεί σύμφωνα με τις διατάξεις του Ν. 4957/2022, όπως αυτές έχουν διαμορφωθεί και ισχύουν. 

Το ΠΜΣ απονέμει Δίπλωμα Μεταπτυχιακών Σπουδών (Δ.Μ.Σ.) με τίτλο: «Κλινικές Εφαρμογές Μοριακής Ιατρικής», (MSc Clinical Applications in Molecular Medicine).

Αντικείμενο – Σκοπός

Αντικείμενο του ΠΜΣ είναι η επιστημονική και τεχνολογική κατάρτιση επιστημόνων αναφορικά με τις εφαρμογές της Μοριακής Ιατρικής στην έρευνα, τη διάγνωση, την πρόληψη και τη θεραπεία των νοσημάτων του ανθρώπου.

Σκοπός του ΠΜΣ είναι:

α)         Η προπαρασκευή των επιστημόνων για την εξυπηρέτηση των αναγκών συγκεκριμένων πεδίων της μεταφραστικής βιοϊατρικής έρευνας, ώστε να καταστούν ικανοί να συνεχίσουν την επιστημονική σταδιοδρομία τους σε ανάλογα πανεπιστημιακά εργαστήρια και ερευνητικά ιδρύματα. Στο πλαίσιο αυτό, δίνεται έμφαση στη δημιουργία ομάδας υποψηφίων διδακτόρων του Τμήματος Ιατρικής του Πανεπιστημίου Θεσσαλίας (ΤΙΠΘ).

β)         Η κατάρτιση των επιστημόνων στις κλινικές εφαρμογές των τεχνολογιών αιχμής, ώστε να είναι ικανοί να στελεχώσουν Μονάδες Υγείας με ανάλογες απαιτήσεις.

Prospective graduate students interested in enrolling in the free twelve-month Master's Program "CLINICAL APPLICATIONS OF MOLECULAR MEDICINE" of the Department of Medicine of the University of Thessaly are invited  https://med.uth.gr/metaptyxiaka-iatrikis/klinikes-efarmoges-moriakis-iatrikis-2/,  για την περίοδο 2025-2026 να υποβάλουν στην Γραμματεία του ΠΜΣ τα παρακάτω δικαιολογητικά:

  1. Written application (available on the PMS website),
  2. Copy of diploma (legally certified) or confirmation that the candidate has completed his educational obligations. In the case of foreign university graduates, a certificate of recognition from DOATAP must be submitted,
  3. Certificate of Analytical Score,
  4. Copy of thesis (where provided),
  5. A detailed curriculum vitae with a recent photograph of the candidate which will definitely include information on the candidate's studies, research and/or professional activity, possible scientific works and his/her Diploma thesis if provided for by his/her Basic Study Program,

 The exam material of the courses is posted on the PMS website. 

The exams will take place immediately after the application deadline.

Necessary actions of candidates before selection: 

  • Interested candidates, before submitting the Application, must contact the participating Laboratories, as they are mentioned in the Study Regulations posted on the PMS Website, in order to declare their interest and to be informed about the Educational Programs and research diploma theses offered by each Laboratory.
  • Subsequently and at the same time as the Application, interested candidates should declare in writing up to two Workshops (in order of preference) in the Educational Programs they wish to join. Also, those of the candidates who are required to take exams should declare in writing the two courses in which they wish to be examined.
