INTERNATIONAL PhD PROGRAM – UNIVERSITY OF BASEL – SWITZERLAND – 2009
International PhD program at the BIOZENTRUM, University of Basel, Switzerland, 2009
Introduction
The Biozentrum together with the Werner Siemens – Foundation (WSF) launches the International PhD program in Molecular Life Sciences and encourages excellent students to apply for one of the prestigious WSF fellowships.
The Biozentrum provides an internationally renowned research environment centered around three focal areas (Infection Biology, Growth and Development, Neurobiology) and two core programs (Structural Biology & Biophysics and Computational & Systems Biology) and is dedicated to basic molecular and biomedical research (http://www.biozentrum.unibas.ch/). We offer advanced Interdisciplinary training in the field of modern biology, a lively and interactive educational atmosphere, and competitive salaries with respect to European standards. University graduates admitted to the program receive theoretical and practical training and conduct a three-year research project under the supervision of a Biozentrum faculty member, monitored by a Thesis Advisory Committee.
Basel is an international center for biology research with major academic life science institutes and a high density of globally operating biotech companies.
Requirements and Application
Applications to the PhD fellowship program have to be submitted online. Application forms, requirements, and additional information can be found at: http://www.biozentrum.unibas.ch/phd/.Please use only the online application form provided on our website at www.bsrt.de where you can also find further information about the BSRT and the application procedure. The BSRT is an equal opportunities Graduate school. We particularly encourage applications from women. We also welcome applications from disabled persons and the BSRT operates a policy whereby preference is given to disabled applicants who have qualifications equivalent to those of able bodied persons applying for the same position.
Deadline
Application deadline: June 30, 2009.
The international PhD program of the Berlin-Brandenburg School for Regenerative Therapies (BSRT) offers outstanding interdisciplinary training and research opportunities for students of natural sciences and engineering who want to pursue a career in the field of Regenerative Medicine and aim at translating their scientific discoveries into clinical applications.
The BSRT is a collaboration between the Charité- Universitätsmedizin Berlin, the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, the Freie Universität Berlin, the Technische Universität Berlin, the Universität Potsdam, Max Planck and Helmholtz Institutes and other high-ranking research institutions in Berlin and Brandenburg. This collaboration offers top class scientific training leading to the award of a Dr. rer. nat. or Dr.-Ing. degree for students with a Master’s or equivalent degree in biology, biochemistry, bioengineering, veterinary medicine, chemistry, engineering or physics. The program will start in January 2010. It is not necessary to hold the Master’s degree at the time of application but it must have been awarded prior to enrolment into the program. Students admitted to the PhD program will be supported by stipends.
The international PhD program of the BSRT comprises a series of courses, seminars and research projects designed to equip students with the essentials to become effective scientists in Regenerative Medicine. Interaction between biological, engineering and clinical research will be fostered through mutual supervision of each PhD project by top class researchers from different disciplines from academia and industry.
