The FMI PhD programs offer students the opportunity to carry out cutting-edge biomedical research in a stimulating, highly international and collaborative atmosphere. Affiliated with the Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research and the University of Basel, the FMI provides interdisciplinary training and access to innovative technologies in the form of innovative technology platforms, including e.g. advanced microscopy, genomics, proteomics, protein structure and bioinformatics.

PhD students work collectively with internationally recognized scientists in the fields of epigenetics, neurobiology, and quantitative biology, developing their research projects together with their group leader. Along with guidance from their advisor, students will also be advised by their thesis committee members, in addition to the FMI Dean of Students as well as the Guidance Counsellor who serve to support their professional and academic development.

A broad range of theoretical and practical courses is available at both the FMI and the University of Basel (see also

Graduate Teaching Program of the University of Basel.) After the conclusion of the research, submission of a written thesis and successful thesis defense, applicants have been awarded a PhD from the University of Basel.
