iNAMES - a newly established MDC-Weizmann Helmholtz International Research School for Imaging from the NAno to the MESo, a joint effort of the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine; the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel; the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin invites applicants for PhD positions.
Job DescriptionTo alleviate the surging incidence of the world’s deadliest diseases, the development of new strategies for early detection and treatment is of utmost relevance. This can only proceed by deepening our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms and pathophysiological processes, calling in turn for new ways to visualize complex biological systems and to image disease states at various length- and time-scales.
