The International PhD Program provides training and research opportunities to highly motivated graduate students in key areas of modern biology, at the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research (ISREC-EPFL), the Department of Biochemistry of the Lausanne University (DB-UNIL), and the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR).
Highly qualified students worldwide are selected twice a year through a competitive selection procedure.
The PhD program currently homes approximately 100 PhD students, and ~ 25 students are appointed per year. The broad international background of the personnel at the Biomedical Research Center (around 26 different nationalities) provides not only a wide range of scientific experiences but also a unique cultural atmosphere.
The biomedical research on this campus hosts more than 30 laboratories covering a wide range of areas, including the following: Biochemistry, Cancer Biology, Cell Biology, Computational Biology, Developmental Biology, Immunology, Molecular Genetics, Parasitology and Virology. The experimental systems also encompass the whole range from yeast to man. For more informations please consult the website of the respective institute.
The working language is English.
Lausanne also offers one of Europe’s most beautiful sceneries and outdoor opportunities (see gallery).
