16 PhD positions in Doctoral Training Unit (MICRO-PATH)

at  Luxembourg Institute of Health

The University of Luxembourg is an international research university with a distinctly multilingual and interdisciplinary character.
The MICRO-PATH Doctoral Training Unit (DTU) unites experts from various disciplines to investigate links between the microbiome and chronic diseases alongside generalisable pathogenic effects. Our mission
is to understand these links causally and mechanistically, and to establish the microbiome as a key target for future therapeutic and preventative measures.
MICRO-PATH is a competitive, interdisciplinary PhD programme supported by the PRIDE scheme of the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR) and the partner institutions. Our DTU focuses on microbiome-mediated pathogenesis through microbiology and big data analytics. The programme offers transferable skills training, career development support, lectures by international experts, and annual PhD symposia.

All PhD candidates will be enrolled in the Doctoral School in Science and Engineering at the University of Luxembourg.
