The Medical University of Graz and the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) offer PhD positions in the international PhD programs in “Inflammatory Disorders in Pregnancy” (DP-iDP), “Molecular Medicine” (MolMed) and “Advanced Medical Biomarker Research” (AMBRA). The PhD studies provide an in-depth, multidisciplinary training in biomedical research in a stimulating international environment. The thesis projects focus on aspects of inflammatory diseases with a special focus in pregnancy, metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, cancer, as well as novel therapeutic targets and the development of medical biomarkers and therapies, and integrate basic research and clinically-oriented sciences utilizing a wide spectrum of state-of-the-art techniques.

Selected PhD students get employed for up to 3 years (initial contract for one year with the option of prolongation upon successful performance) with a contract that includes social benefits. Moreover, DP-iDP students will be encouraged to spend up to one year abroad joining other collaborating laboratories with the possibility of a 4th year extension of their contract.

Applicants must hold (or be close to obtaining) an undergraduate degree equivalent to a Master in any discipline of natural or life sciences or medicine.
