PhD Studentships in Life Sciences - GermanyThe International Max Planck Research School for Molecular and Cellular Life Sciences, jointly conducted by the Max Planck Institutes of Biochemistry, Neurobiology and Psychiatry in cooperation with the Ludwig Maximilian University and the Technical University Munich, offers several PhD student positions in the international PhD program "Molecular and Cellular Life Sciences". The 3-year program, entirely taught in English, provides comprehensive scientific training in a superb and vibrant research environment with state of the art facilities and cutting-edge research projects covering areas of biochemistry, cell biology, molecular medicine, neurobiology and structural biology. The doctoral degree will be awarded by one of the two Munich universities both of which are amongst the highest ranked universities in Germany. Students specialize in one of five major disciplines that form parallel but interlinked tracts thereby creating an interdisciplinary context to promote the ability of cross-frontier thinking. Laboratory work is supplemented by seminars, summer schools, elective courses, training in soft skills and participation in international conferences. Highly qualified candidates with a clear commitment to basic and/or clinical research are invited to apply. Applicants should hold a MSc (or an equivalent degree) in biological sciences, biochemistry, biophysics, biotechnology, medicine or a related discipline. A one-year preparatory program is available to a limited number of outstanding applicants with a Bachelor's degree allowing a fast track path towards a doctoral degree. Fellowships are available to German and international students. Candidates will be selected on a competitive basis. Online registration will be activated after September 15 of academic year. Deadline for application: January 15 the following year. For more information and application, see: PhD Studentships in Life Sciences
