We are always recruiting highly motivated, ambitious PhD/Rotation/Internship Students or who would like to do their Bachelor or Master thesis in our lab, and who are excited about science, keen on learning and to discover and study a new exciting area of research: DNA and RNA modifications in the brain. To investigate these DNA and RNA modifications, we offer various exciting projects in the lab that cover areas such as Neurobiology, Bioinformatics, Molecular Biology/Biochemistry, Mass Spectrometry, Chemistry. All students should have a basic understanding of one of these areas.

• PhD/Rotation Students: CIBR has a joint PhD program with Universities such as Peking University, Beijing Normal University, Capital Medical University, etc., through which graduate students can join for PhD rotations and for their PhDs. If you are already a PhD student at one of these universities, but are not part of the joint PhD program, you can still do a rotation or PhD project in our laboratory, while officially remaining with your university.  If you are not a PhD student, but would like to apply, you have to apply through CIBR’s PhD program. More can be found here.

• Internship Students and Students who wish to undertake their Bachelor or Master thesis in our lab: If you are a motivated and ambitious student, irrespective of which university you belong to, you can still join our lab and do your project with us. Please note, we will only consider applications for a minimum of 3 months. If you are interested, please contact Magdalena Koziol directly.

All students will be compensated following the CIBR student salary/internship scale. Insurance, housing and welfare benefits will be provided through the corresponding University or through CIBR.
