Program Review Our program aims to integrate systemic biology, bioinformatics and basic biochemical approaches to investigate the biological and mechanical role of cancer associated non-coding RNAs and provide the molecular cue for novel drug design. The interns will take the independent study participate our journal club. Through these training, the students not only get the professional knowledge of cancer biology and drug development but also practice to apply critical thinking, empirical medical research capabilities, international perspective and communication skills in their independent study. In addition, after the completion of the program, we will further recruit graduate students who are interested and have research potential in the “Institute of Cancer Biology and Drug Discovery” of Taipei Medical University, and will actively train them to become the high-level cancer biomedical and drug research talents in the future.
