The Graduate School of Quantitative and Molecular Biosciences Munich (QMB - former QBM) is seeking PhD students with a background in biochemistry, biology, bioinformatics, physics or applied math and an interest in conducting interdisciplinary research at the interface of experiment and quantitative theory. We place a strong emphasis on experimental work, while encouraging students to engage in theoretical approaches to derive meaningful insights from their data.
The Graduate School seeks to prepare young life scientists for the emerging era of quantitative, systems-oriented bioscience. It provides an innovative, international PhD training program that bridges the divide between traditionally separate disciplines, from biochemistry and medicine to bioinformatics, experimental and theoretical biophysics, and applied mathematics. While maintaining a strong command of their primary discipline, QMB students will become well adept in multiple approaches and styles of thought and learn to communicate and work effectively with scientists from different backgrounds.
