A large number of Research Groups/Platforms of the IIS La Fe collaborate in this Master's Degree, offering students different sessions that cover a wide range of biomedical topics such as: genetic diagnosis, Biobanks, Medical Imaging, Biomarkers in pathology and problems in research into Rare Diseases, among others. Students also have the opportunity to consolidate their knowledge in a work environment where they will be exposed to real cases.
