IDIBAPS launched the first call of DYNAMIS (Doctoral programme Yielding Novel Advancements in Medicine and Innovative Solutions). This IDIBAPS scheme is offering five 48-months PhD fellowships in the current open call. Highly motivated students with an excellent academic record, regardless of nationality or scientific background, are invited to apply.
The DYNAMIS programme, co-funded by the European Union, brings together 33 Associated Partners from diverse disciplines, countries, and sectors that will contribute to this initiative. Its goal is to train the next generation of leaders in biomedical research by bridging the gap between laboratory discoveries and clinical applications. To this aim, each PhD student will benefit from high-quality joint supervision by a clinical scientist and a basic or translational researcher.
Selected candidates will join the vibrant research environment of the Clínic Campus, and will receive comprehensive training, including access to programme-specific doctoral schools, career development opportunities, and international and intersectoral secondments.
The deadline to present the application is December the 2nd.
The job offer is available here. Different resources to prepare the application are available on the website, including the list of 27 different research lines, among which the candidates can chose. The research lines are spanning across the different research areas and programmes of IDIBAPS:
