International postgraduate program in Chemical Biology leading to Ph.D./Dr. rer.nat. degree
The International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS-CB) offers an international postgraduate program in Chemical Biology leading to Ph.D./Dr. rer.nat. degree.
Up to ten Ph.D. positions are available for 2 year appointments with possible extension for one additional year.
The program was established to provide interdisciplinary education to graduate students by bridging disciplinary borders between chemistry and biology. The program is based at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology but includes also members at the University of Dortmund and the Ruhr-University of Bochum.
The curriculum is in English and consists, in addition to experimental work for the Ph.D. thesis, of a well-balanced teaching program aimed to advance the training of the students in the various areas covered by the field of Chemical Biology. Applicants should have or expect to obtain a first class degree or diploma (Bachelors, Masters or equivalent) in Chemistry, Biology or related fields. Further details of the postgraduate program at the IMPS-CB and the application procedure are available on http://www.imprs-cb.mpg.de/. The deadline for applications is January 31st for admission in fall 2007. For informal inquiries please contact Dr. Jutta Roetter (imprs@mpi-dortmund.mpg.de).
