PhD Studentship in the Mitochondria Biology Laboratory at Laval University, Canada

Employer:Laval University
Study Subject:Cell and Molecular Biology
Level:PhD
Scholarship Description: Laboratory offers a stimulating research environment with excellent technical equipment in a recently completely renovated building that hosts world-class scientists working on a broad spectrum of disciplines related to neurosciences.
Our two main objectives are: 1) to understand the molecular mechanisms implicated in neurodegenerative diseases caused by mitochondrial dysfunctions, such as Parkinson’s disease, optic nerve atrophy, and more; 2) to train quality students that want to pursue a successful career in science.
We seek to expand our lab by adding at least one new team member. We are interested in finding a highly motivated student with excellent education record and that is interested in joining us in continuing our world-renowned research on the role of proteolysis in the egulation of mitochondrial activities.
The candidate we are looking for must hold a MSc or equivalent diploma in a field related to genetics/cell biology/biochemistry and show in her/his cover letter that s/he is smart, knows our published work, and understands what it takes to succeed in science.

Scholarship Application Deadline:01.05.2011
