Department of Molecular Medicine - DMM

The DMM's mission is to build a scientific, educational and cultural ecosystem oriented towards the exploration of biomedical frontiers, with the aim of improving human health, curing diseases and alleviating suffering.
This mission is articulated along the 3 fundamental axes of training, research and third mission.

The vision that guides the DMM is "working together for the medicine of tomorrow", a synthesis objective that orients the Department's strategies towards excellence, social responsibility and building a sustainable future for health.
The DMM aspires to become a reference center for emerging technologies in biomedicine, with a focus on bioinformatics, artificial intelligence, and healthcare big data; It aims to develop innovative diagnostic tools, advanced molecular and cellular maps, and predictive models for personalized medicine. This orientation is also reflected in the didactic proposal, which offers a transversal training experience: from molecules to transgenic models, from omics sciences to organoids, up to the mechanisms of drug resistance.
