PhD Fellowship in Medical Sciences


Highlights:
1. A 4‐year fellowship to complete a PhD study in Medical Sciences is available at the Department of Cell Biology, University Medical Center Groningen in Groningen, the Netherlands. Outstanding candidates with a strong background in biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology and/or related fields are invited to apply.
