About Master in Molecular and Translational Neuroscience

The programme aims at providing a qualified, research-based education in clinically- and therapeutically-oriented neurosciences. The programme conveys specific theoretical, methodological and practical knowledge of cellular and molecular processes in neural cells and in the nervous system leading to diseases as well as the application of this knowledge to possible new diagnosticÂ and therapeutic procedures and clinical applications.Â Furthermore, the close interaction with our industry partner Boehringer Ingelheim allows close insights into the work of a pharmaceutical company. In addition to introductory basic lectures and practical trainings, students can, right from the first semester, select subjects providing more in-depth knowledge in different fields likeÂ clinical neuroscience and European patent law. The second semester offers a broadÂ scope of choices ranging from a specialisation on translational aspects towards clinical and pharmaceutical applications to aspects of animal experimental research and application. In the third semester, all these aspects cumulate in the module "Advanced Molecular and Translational Neuroscienceâ€œ and finally, together with two laboratory courses, lead to the Masterâ€™s thesis, which can be performed in clinical, preclinical andÂ biological institutes and facilities in the university, in clinics or in companies like Boehringer Ingelheim.
