A special PhD opportunity for non-Israelis, under an EU grant ITN PHYMOT, Horizon 2020 (2020-2023).
The grant supports PhD students of any country for a period of 3 years in their non-home countries. See the link below for specific open projects (under “jobs”). https://etn-phymot.eu/ Our broad scientific objective is to understand the physics of cell motility, from single cells to collective behavior. Research on cell motility is flourishing, driven by new experimental, theoretical, and numerical tools from mathematics, engineering, and physics. Within PHYMOT, young researchers will be trained at the interface between physics, biology, and engineering to face core challenges of a modern society such as food production, disease treatment strategies, sustainable and ecological development. |
