shrink expandThe aim of the study is the preparation for highly qualified research work with deep theoretical and practical knowledge in xenobiochemistry, patobiochemistry, and medical biochemistry and good knowledge in other biochemical sciences and related sciences in the field of pharmacy, biology and medicine. The core of the program is a research project based on experimental laboratory work, the results of which are published internationally and summarized in the dissertation thesis. The study is focused on biochemical disciplines with an emphasis on the interaction of xenobiotics with molecules of the organism, and on the biochemistry of pathological conditions, including clinical-biochemical aspects.
