PhD Scholarship of the Leibniz Center Infection

Graduate School “Infection

The Leibniz Center Infection (LCI) is a strategic alliance of the North German Leibniz Institutes Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine (BNITM), Research Center Borstel – Leibniz Lung Center (FZB) and Leibniz Institute for Virology (LIV). The LCI focuses on global infections and links the complementary research of the three Leibniz institutes: tropical and emerging infections at BNITM, bacterial infections of the lung at FZB and viral diseases at LIV.

The alliance provides a three-year structured graduate program on “Infection”. This interdisciplinary program offers ambitious training and research opportunities in the fields of parasitology, immunology, bacteriology, virology, infection biology, and molecular-, cellular- and structural biology as well as pathobiology of infectious disease.
