The DLSIGS is dedicated to cultivating the next generation of leaders in biomedical sciences. We combine rigorous training in fundamental sciences with a strong foundation in the humanities and social sciences, equipping students to navigate and thrive in an increasingly complex and dynamic world. In the first two years of the undergraduate program, the curriculum emphasizes a solid grounding in integrated basic sciences, including mathematics, physics, chemistry, and life sciences, alongside training in information and data processing skills essential for the AI era. This foundation prepares students for advanced studies in biomedical sciences. Starting from the third year, students can explore diverse specialized courses in biomedical sciences, tailoring their education to match their interests. To encourage flexibility and interdisciplinary learning, we reduce mandatory credits and offer ample opportunities for students to engage in research projects in biomedical science laboratories, participate in cross-disciplinary and inter-university collaborations, or connect with industry. A key highlight of our program is its emphasis on developing information literacy through a unique four-semester training module. This, combined with a strong foundation in life sciences and professional biomedical research skills, prepares our students to embrace the era of precision medicine and AI-driven healthcare with confidence and competence.
Our primary research areas encompass various key fields in biological and medical sciences, including:
- Molecular Genetics: Exploring the mechanisms of gene replication, recombination, and expression regulation, as well as epigenetic regulation mechanisms to uncover the molecular basis of heredity and understand the molecular basis of diseases.
- Genomics: Adopting a multi-omics perspective to provide comprehensive and systemic insights into life phenomena.
- Cellular and Molecular Biology: Focusing on the molecular mechanisms regulating cell structure, activity, and signal transduction to understand core cellular functions.
- Developmental Biology: Using zebrafish, Drosophila, and mice as model organisms to study the molecular regulation mechanisms of embryonic development and organogenesis.
- Neurobiology: Examining the mechanisms of nerve impulse transmission and the regulatory principles of nervous system development and diseases.
- Structural Biology: Investigating the physicochemical properties of biological macromolecules and analyzing their molecular structures through computational simulations.
- Cancer Biology: Using cell, organoid, and model organisms to deeply investigate the molecular mechanisms of cancer progression.
- Drug Development: Developing synthetic or natural drugs and exploring the mechanisms of actions of molecularly targeted drugs.
- Biomedical Imaging and Data Science: Focusing on the application of imaging technologies in biomedicine, combined with artificial intelligence and big data analytics, to drive innovations in biomedical data processing and intelligent healthcare.
These research areas address fundamental questions in biology and integrate applied sciences, supporting advancements in modern biomedical research.
