Nordic EMBL Partnership: Annual call for PhD students

The Nordic EMBL Partnership has opened its annual call for outstanding students seeking PhDs in molecular medicine.

Start your scientific career with us! 

The Nordic EMBL Partnership tackles some of the biggest challenges in biomedicine today. The complementary research expertise, advanced research infrastructures and strong industry collaborations make the Partnership a global, strategic player, striving for a better understanding of molecular mechanisms of health and disease.

The Partnership comprises four international research centers hosted by the Universities in Aarhus (Denmark), Oslo (Norway), Helsinki (Finland) and Umeå (Sweden) and operates in cooperation with EMBL (European Molecular Biology Laboratory). Each institute brings a unique set of expertise and opportunities in molecular medicine and life science research, complementing each other and the recognised research strengths of EMBL. The Partnership provides researchers with access to scientific collaborations, research infrastructure and training activities.
