Doctoral Program in Cancerology

Sorbonne University’s interdisciplinary doctoral programs aim to develop and support research areas that go beyond the disciplinary field of a single doctoral school. These programs contribute to the emergence of a community of young researchers trained at the frontiers of knowledge and disciplines. Doctoral students recruited into these programs are attached to and monitored by the doctoral school to which their thesis director is affiliated.

The selection procedure is done in three steps:

  • Pre-selection of doctoral research projects by the program’s scientific committee. Only projects validated by the doctoral schools are examined by the program.
  • Putting the pre-selected projects online.
  • Students apply for these projects, and doctoral contracts are awarded after a jury of experts has heard the candidates.

IUC Interdisciplinary Cancer Doctoral Program

The objective of the doctoral program in oncology at the AP-HP University Institute of Oncology. Sorbonne University (IUC), is to create a synergy between the actors of the AP-HP and Sorbonne University involved in research, teaching and care of patients with cancer and to promote the emergence of a dedicated research community, centered within the IUC.

A multidisciplinary environment dedicated to research, care, teaching and training
