The training program will have a twofold theory and practice and duration of 12 weeks between July and October.

My group is interested in trainning a student in our lab of biochemistry and molecular biology that works mainly in cell signalling mechanisms (see group publications below).

.Requirements for candidates wishing to participate in the program must:
1)Being a student of final year degree in the field of biomedicine.
2)Having an academic transcript greater than or equal to 2.
Procedure:
∙ The applications must be submitted via e-mailto mpr@idibell.cat
. Curriculum vitae and academic transcript of credits approved
3. Motivation letter (maximum 200 words)
