Postgraduate Program in Medical Sciences

Minimally invasive surgery has come to occupy a large space and scope in the surgical field as a whole over the last 30 years. Currently, it is integrated into various diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, encompassing endoscopy, interventional radiology, and surgery itself across all surgical specialties and subspecialties.

The aim is to delve deeper into its technical and scientific foundations in order to create and develop new applications of this method, increasingly seeking the integration of various areas of surgery as a discipline, the technical and scientific training of new researchers, and the encouragement of the development of artificial intelligence in this area of ​​knowledge. The objective is to train teachers and researchers capable of developing new methodologies for promoting health and improving quality of life.

This will enable the development of an interface between basic academic scientific research, the production of new technologies, the integration of various interfaces in the surgical field, and the real clinical application of new therapeutic possibilities for patients.

Translational research applies findings from basic science to projects aimed at improving human health and well-being. The goal is to apply findings from basic research to medical practice in order to produce and introduce new therapeutic targets, medications, devices, and treatment options for patients.

The objective is to train teachers and researchers capable of developing research to better promote health and improve quality of life, with the possibility of scaling up production and registering patents for future clinical use. This will enable the development of an interface between basic academic scientific research, the production of new medicines, and the real clinical application of new therapeutic possibilities for patients.

The Master's Program in Medical Sciences at MANDIC is committed to providing solid training for qualified human resources to perform advanced and transformative professional practice, highlighting the social context in which our graduates are embedded, as well as enabling them to perform teaching, research, and outreach functions with practical experience in the health field, inextricably linked to public policies appropriate to the local reality with a social vision.

To achieve this, up-to-date information, scientific evidence, and cutting-edge teaching and research technologies will be used in the research areas that comprise the Program.
