PhD positions at Wageningen University

Dear Colleague,

Currently, there are 11 vacancies for PhD students at Wageningen University. These are open exclusively to candidates from non-EU member states. Amongst these is a project in our laboratory on microtubule organization that has both cell biological and biophysical aspects (Project 07: Microtubules Alone and in Bundles). We would be grateful if you could bring the attached information to the attention of qualified students at your institute, or to those whom might be interested.

Best wishes,

Jan Vos and Marcel Janson
