- University of Torino PhD Programme "Complexity in post-genomic Biology"
This Ph.D Programme is for Graduate Students in Biology, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics and Medicine. Prospective students should have an excellent score in their previous classes, a strong undergraduate science background, a strong commitment to research and they should accept the challenge posed by a new interdisciplinary science. Indeed the present Programme is specifically interested in recruiting students with broad scientific interests and a taste for collaboration.
The Programme is designed to offer scientific training, research projects and perspectives in the area of post-genomic biology by using combined computational, engineering and experimental approaches with theoretical modelling, rooted in theoretical physics and mathematics. The biological interests include cell differentiation and development, cell signalling, cell growth and motility, cancer progression, cancer cell genetics, protein folding, gene-expression.

- Integrative Biology Graduate Program, University of Texas southwestern Medical Center
- The Integrative Biology Graduate Program fosters training in research areas focused on understanding the molecular and cellular basis of integrated biological systems. The Integrative Biology Graduate Program (IBGP) promotes effective cross-disciplinary research involving approximately sixty faculty members in basic science and clinical departments with the goal of training students for careers as independent investigators. Some areas of research interests in this program include response and adaptation to physiological (exercise, microgravity, and pregnancy), and pathological (hypertension inflammatory and immune diseases, diabetes, sepsis, and cancer) stresses. Specific areas of investigation address cell-cell signaling, including the basis of fertilization, exocrine secretion, renal tubular transport, gene regulation in development and differentiation, regulation of cardiovascular function and metabolism, regulation of muscle contraction and protein turnover, sensory regulation of behavior, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and tumor biology.
- The Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, Princeton University
- The Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, housed in the Carl Icahn Laboratory at Princeton University, was established to innovate in research and teaching at the interface of modern biology and the more quantitative sciences. The Institute is the hub of the Center for Quantitative Biology, funded by the the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
- Cornell, Rockefeller, Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center: Tri-Institutional Program in Computational Biology and Medicine
- The Tri-Institutional Program in Computational Biology & Medicine (CBM) is a collaboration between three outstanding research and educational institutions: Cornell University (both the Ithaca campus and the Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences), The Rockefeller University, and Sloan-Kettering Institute. This highly selective program offers Ph.D. degrees in the newly emerging field of Computational Biology and Medicine, at the interface between biology, mathematics, and computer science. The combined resources of these world-leading institutions create an unparalleled interdisciplinary environment for excellence in CBM. The program strongly encourages collaboration among the campuses and the different disciplines.
- Plant Systems Biology, Flanders and Ghent University.
- Plants are crucial for mankind. As an established institute at the forefront of Plant Sciences, our mission is to use systems biology approaches combining bioinformatics, computational biology, functional genomics and classical biology to further explore the potential of plants to help build a sustainable economy. Our activities
are rooted in fundamental research and oriented towards applications for the benefit of society.
