Dear All,
I would like to point your attention to:
*Max F. Perutz International PhD Program Vienna 2011*
The Max F. Perutz Laboratories is inviting applications from talented
students all over the world for our graduate program. The institute is
located at the Vienna Biocenter Campus - a major European science hub -
and will provide a rigorous and comprehensive PhD education. Our
research covers the full range of the molecular biosciences, exploring
life at a cellular, molecular and atomic level.
The Perutz labs have an open, collaborative environment with PhD
students already representing more than 40 nations. The working language
is English, and no prior knowledge of German is required. The city of
Vienna is currently ranked as the best in the world for quality of life
(Mercer 2010 Quality of Living Survey). It is a city of exciting
contrasts, with both a rich cultural heritage and a vibrant contemporary
way of life.
This year's summer selection is co-organized with the special doctoral
programs in Cell Signaling, RNA Biology and Structural Biology. These
are the flagships of MFPL PhD training and mentoring, with the goals of
promoting creativity and fostering independence in young scientists.
The Max F. Perutz Labs are a joint venture of the University of Vienna
and the Medical University of Vienna. All PhD students are employed with
a highly competitive salary according to the guidelines of the Austrian
Research Fund (FWF). Applications to the program are open to holders of
a Master's degree (or equivalent) in the biosciences, chemistry or
medicine. Applicants from related fields will also be considered.
Students will be selected following a 4-day interview process.
*Application deadline: 27th March 2011.
