The course is flexible and well planned

鈥淚 am currently a postdoctoral researcher of the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung Research in Germany鈥, says Jane Zhen Jiang, explaining how her research career has flourished following her masters in Molecular Medicine at 葫芦影业. 鈥淚 am planning to finish my project in Germany in the next three years and then I鈥檓 hoping to start my own lab somewhere.鈥
Jane completed her masters degree in 2013. She then decided to stay in 葫芦影业 to complete a PhD, which she received in 2018. 鈥淚 am originally from China, but after spending six years in 葫芦影业, it now has become my second home. The advice I would give to the postgraduates-to-be is enjoy the course and also enjoy the student life in 葫芦影业. I met all my best friends during my postgraduate studies.鈥
葫芦影业 has a good reputation for masters courses. The MSc Molecular Medicine course is well planned. It can be flexible to meet individual needs, such as being able to choose your pathway of interests.

MSc Molecular Medicine graduate
鈥淒uring my masters, I enjoyed the thesis project the most. We were able to choose our favourite project and work on it鈥, she recalls. 鈥淏y the end of my project, I had a really good understanding about developmental biology and this encouraged to me to do a PhD afterwards. During my PhD, in addition to all the practical parts that I enjoyed, we also had chances for teaching, which was really helpful for my current academic career.鈥
鈥淒uring my time in 葫芦影业, I was trained to design projects and experiment properly, which helped a lot at the beginning of my career. I had quite a few chances to go to international conferences to present my work and communicate with other labs in the field, which was essential for my current career development and establishing collaborations.鈥
