International PhD Studies in Molecular Genomics,Transcriptomics and Bioinformatics in Cancer"

• A new international PhD program - supported by the Polish Foundation of Science - is offered by the Postgraduate School of Molecular Medicine, Medical University of Warsaw. The project will provide interdisciplinary postgraduate training focusing on application of recent high throughput technologies and an integrated, interdisciplinary approach to study the molecular genetic and genomic processes central to cancer development. In the project transcriptomics/genomics data generated by analyses of follicular thyroid cancers, soft tissue sarcoma, melanoma, glioma, lung and breast cancers will be evaluated by dedicated bioinformatic methods in order to find characteristic gene signatures and/or novel predictive markers. In some systems transcriptomics and genome-wide data combined with sophisticated computational and system biology methods will be exploit to specify molecular pathways involved in carcinogenesis. Projects will be carried out in laboratories located: in Warsaw (Warsaw Medical University, Cancer Center-Institute of Oncology, Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling, Nencki Institute of Experimental Biology), in Szczecin (International Hereditary Cancer Centre, Pomeranian Medical University), in Gliwice (Cancer Center-Institute of Oncology-Gliwice Branch). All teams have developed successful scientific cooperation in the proposed field of research (students will be working in collaborating laboratories for 6-12 months)

• Students from all countries are invited to apply

• A fellowship of 3000 PLN/month (tax-free) + 500 PLN/month (insurance) is offered.
