BIOTECnico is an interdisciplinary four-year’s Doctoral program, offered by IST and iBB, that provides PhD students with a world-class training in Biotechnology and Biosciences. It is designed to attract national and foreign highly talented and motivated students and to prepare a new breed of creative researchers to translate basic bioscience discoveries into technological innovations in Industrial, Agro-Food, Health and Environmental Biotechnology. The program is anchored in two tracks: Biological Sciences and Biochemical Engineering.

The doctoral program AIM has a focus on advanced integrated microsystems and its objective is to offer advanced training that includes: micro/nanofabrication of devices and systems; sensing and actuating; application to physical, biotechnological, pharmaceutical, and biomedical challenges. iBB researchers are part of the multidisciplianry team that provides support to the program.
