Applications invited for the 2022 FIMM-EMBL/DSHealth International PhD Programme

FIMM in collaboration with the Doctoral School in Health Sciences (DSHealth) is seeking outstanding candidates for PhD positions in Molecular Medicine, Genomics, Molecular Bioscience, Bioinformatics, Neuroscience, Computational Biomedicine, Drug Research, Data Science, and Artificial Intelligence starting in August 2022. The call for applications is open until February 6, 2022.

As part of the and in collaboration with the at the University of Helsinki, we welcome applications for the 2022 FIMM-EMBL/DSHealth International PhD Programme. The call for applications for PhD positions in the fields of Molecular Medicine, Genomics, Molecular Bioscience, Bioinformatics, Neuroscience, Computational Biomedicine, Drug Research, Data Science, and Artificial Intelligence is open until February 6, 2022. Detailed information regarding the institutes participating, position descriptions, research areas, qualifications, and application and selection process can be found at the .

We currently have four openings for doctoral students who show outstanding potential to become independent researchers and who will significantly benefit from the FIMM-EMBL/DSHealth International PhD rotational training. Specifically, these positions are in the fields of molecular medicine, genomics, bioinformatics, molecular bioscience, data science, drug research, computational biomedicine, neuroscience and artificial intelligence.

Outstanding PhD students will be recruited to the rotation programme where they will work with 2-3 different research groups during a 6-9 month period prior to selecting a research group in which to remain for their complete PhD studies. This programme provides an exciting opportunity to explore different research topics and working environments as well as learn a variety of science and technologies, making connections within and beyond the institutes.  

PhD students in the Rotation Programme:

  • Gain formal research experience before the doctoral programme period
  • Diversify and deepen scientific knowledge
  • Develop and refine scientific interests
  • Receive early-career training with feedback in scientific communication
  • Foster a best match with a research mentor(s)
