Warsaw-4-PhD

Warsaw PhD School in Natural and BioMedical Sciences

Information

In April 2 2019, at the Nencki Institute, 9 Warsaw scientific institutions signed an agreement to establish, and run a PhD school in cooperation with each other. It will be the Warsaw PhD School in Natural and BioMedical Sciences (Warsaw-4-PhD). The school will commence its activities in October 2019, and will offer interdisciplinary education in 4 scientific disciplines: biology, chemistry, physics, and medicine.

The School will be constituted by 9 scientific institutes:
