When you apply for the EMBL International PhD Programme, you are asked to select two EMBL research units and to indicate up to four research areas that interest you.
A variety of backgrounds, such as biology, chemistry, computational science, mathematics and statistics, are relevant to PhD projects at EMBL-EBI.
As well as purely computational projects, there may also be possibilities to incorporate some experimental biology in collaborating laboratories.
We are now recruiting additional students to EMBL-EBI for admission in October 2027. Further information can be found at: https://www.embl.org/about/info/embl-international-phd-programme/.
