Application Deadline: April 3rd 2025
Are you eager to join an international community of scientists to tackle novel and exciting research projects in the areas of biochemistry, structural biology, biophysics, cell biology, chemical biology and synthetic biology?
The International Max Planck Research School for Living Matter: from molecules to dynamics (IMPRS-LM) is a joint PhD program between the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology, the TU Dortmund University, the Ruhr University of Bochum, and the University of Duisburg-Essen, located in the vibrant and multicultural Ruhr Metropolitan Area in Germany.
The IMPRS-LM brings together scientists with different backgrounds to investigate one of the most fundamental questions in biology: how do cells turn complex biochemical signals into meaningful responses? Cells must respond to a vast array of stimuli, but how do they build these responses, how do macromolecular complexes operate to determining cellular behaviour? By understanding these complex processes at a molecular level, we can gain insights into the intricate mechanisms that govern life itself.
The IMPRS-LM provides a unique graduate training program that equips students with the skills and knowledge to address complex questions in cellular biology. Through a comprehensive interdisciplinary curriculum, research opportunities, and mentorship, our program enables students to pursue their graduate studies and become innovative and independent researchers.
As a PhD student, you will benefit from:
• Fully-funded PhD positions (work contracts with social benefits)
• Dedicated mentors to guide and promote your career
• An international and exciting working atmosphere
• State-of-the-art research facilities
• An English-speaking training program, including lectures, advanced scientific workshops, transferable skill courses, and career development activities
To apply, candidates should hold (or expect to hold prior to the start of their PhD) a M.Sc. (or an equivalent degree) in Biology, Biochemistry, Life Science, (Bio-)Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, or related fields.
Visit the IMPRS-LM website for more information about the program, the application process, and the list of research group leaders currently offering positions.
The Max Planck Society is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace, providing equal opportunities to all employees, irrespective of gender, nationality, disabilities, religious or sexual orientation. We strongly encourage applications from underrepresented groups.
