Tenovus Cancer Care Studentship is delighted to offer PhD scholarship in medicine. The duration of this scholarship is 4 years. To be eligible, candidates must be European students. Applicants should apply before April 29, 2015.
A significant limitation to many cancer therapies is that the tumour readily develops resistance, resulting in aggressive tumour relapse. The project will be based within the Henry Wellcome building, at Cardiff University School of Medicine.
The student will have ample opportunities to interact with other PhD students and postdoctoral within the School of Medicine through regular seminar series, Cancer Immunology focus groups and away days.
