Undergraduate Students:

Interested undergraduates (both at the BSc and MSc level) should email to diego.cotella@med.uniupo.it to discuss possible projects.

Visiting students:

We also accept visiting students under the "Erasmus+" and "Free Mover" Programs. Do not hesitate to contact us!

Our lab's research will be of interest to those interested in interdisciplinary research as well as those studying biology or biotechnology with interests in molecular biology, biomarker discovery, gene technology, biomanufacturing of recombinant proteins and antibodies

In the academic year 2023-24 we will recruit two Master students in Medical Biotechnology, four Bachelor students in Biotechnology (two each semester) and one postdoc

The proposed research themes will be:
