Training opportunities at CAEP
Training for higher degrees can be obtained at CAEP. Any funded PhD or MPhil projects will be advertised from the CAEP home page (click on "Home" in the navigation bar to the left). We also have many possible projects for PhD and MPhil that are not funded. The subject areas for these projects are those listed for each staff member. You can view these by clicking on "Research areas" in the navigation bar to the left. There are several funded MSc places for students from the European Union. When enquiring, you should send a copy of your curriculum vitae and indicate your potential sources of funding.
We run a comprehensive training programme, which includes courses in presentation skills, information technology and data analysis. A wide range of modern techniques can be learnt, including gene sequencing, real-time PCR, monoclonal antibody production, RNA analysis, immunoassays, protein chemistry, gas chromatography, mass spectrometry and electron microscopy.
Students have the opportunity to meet many visiting researchers and are encouraged to publish their own findings and make poster and oral presentations at international meetings.
PhD and Postdoctoral Fellowships at CAEP
PhD or Postdoctoral fellow candidates with strong research records are invited to contact one of our staff in their preferred research areas who will assist them in putting together a competitive application to the Wellcome Trust Training or Intermediate fellowships schemes, to the European Marie-Curie Fellowship programme or to other relevant funding schemes.
