For those interested in our research projects
We offer Bachelor stages, Bachelor projects, Master projects as well as Master and PhD projects. We encourage and support medical doctoral students who aspire an experimental thesis to enter the MD-PhD-program and/or acquire a promotion stipend of the Medical Faculty. Interested parties should contact the project leaders directly (links below).
