The international PhD program of the Berlin-Brandenburg School for Regenerative Therapies (BSRT) offers outstanding interdisciplinary training and research opportunities for students of nature, material and engineering sciences who want to pursue a career in the field of Regenerative Medicine and aim at translating their scientific discoveries into clinical applications.

The BSRT is a collaboration between the Charité- Universitätsmedizin Berlin, the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, the Freie Universität Berlin, the Technische Universität Berlin, the Universität Potsdam, Max Planck and Helmholtz Institutes and other high-ranking research institutions in Berlin and Brandenburg. This collaboration offers top class scientific training leading to the award of a Dr. rer. nat. or Dr.-Ing. degree for students with a Master’s or equivalent degree in biology, biochemistry, bioengineering, veterinary medicine, chemistry, engineering or physics. The program will start in October 2010. It is not necessary to hold the Master’s degree at the time of application but it must have been awarded prior to enrolment into the program. Students admitted to the PhD program will be supported by stipends.

The international PhD program of the BSRT comprises a series of courses, seminars and research projects designed to equip students with the essentials to become effective scientists in Regenerative Medicine. Interaction between biological, engineering and clinical research will be fostered through mutual supervision of each PhD project by top class researchers from different disciplines from academia and industry.

Application deadline is the 10th April 2010.

The BSRT is an equal opportunities Graduate school. We particularly encourage applications from women. We also welcome applications from disabled persons and the BSRT operates a policy whereby preference is given to disabled applicants who have qualifications equivalent to those of able bodied persons applying for the same position.
