- RIVERA Santiago (INP): Mechanisms of action of MT5-MMP in Alzheimer’s disease and therapeutic modulation using viral-mediated transgenic strategies.
PhD for MD contracts
The NeuroSchool PhD Program offers to fund one year of a PhD research project in neuroscience within an AMU laboratory for a resident, young MD or PharmD. The scholarship is fully funded by NeuroSchool and aims to foster links between doctors, pharmacists and researchers, to encourage the involvement of doctors and pharmacists in experimental research and to bring scientific, medical and paramedical training closer together. The call for applications is available here.
Applicants must apply via the dedicated call page. The deadline for applications is May 2, 2023.
