About this position
The Center for Infection Biology (ZIB) at Hannover Medical School offers an international PhD programme in Infection Biology for students interested in the complex interactions between host and pathogen. The programme combines fundamental research with tools from immunology, cell biology, and molecular biology, giving doctoral researchers a strong basis for studying infection-related biological processes.
Students work on a three-year research project, attend seminars, conventions, and lab courses, and become part of the Hannover Biomedical Research School (HBRS). The programme emphasizes structured research training and supervision, with students supported by a network of supervisors and support teams throughout their doctoral studies.
The programme is based in Hannover and is run in cooperation with Twincore - Centre for Experimental and Clinical Infection Research, the University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover, and the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research in Braunschweig. English is the teaching language, and the cohort is international, with students accepted from around the world.
The research environment is focused on infection biology and related biomedical research, offering a doctoral track designed to train highly qualified scientists through intensive laboratory research and academic development.
