PhD program

ibt_socsite

 

The Institute of Biotechnology is engaged in basic molecular biological research with an emphasis on processes that impact human health. PhD students are part of international teams, working on interesting projects in state-of-the-art laboratories.

In collaboration with selected universities we offer PhD projects in the fields of Cell, Molecular and Developmental Biology, Biomedicine, Biophysics and many others.

Who we are?

What we offer?

  • the opportunity to work on a dissertation, an integral part of which is publication in prestigious professional journals
  • full-time or part-time employment
  • the opportunity to apply for student grants at your home university
  • seminars, courses, workshops and many other events for PhD students

In addition, the PhD committee ( PHD_COMMITTEE@IBT.CAS.CZ) itself organises a number of informal activities.

How to apply?

Take a look at the activities of each laboratory, select the right one according to the topic and contact its leader directly.

The PhD committee is an organization established in 2023 and run by PhD students. The aim of the PhD committee is to promote a viable community of PhD students at IBT. The events organized by the PhD committee are not only informal social activities such as a pubquiz and a scavenger hunt in the streets of Prague, but also scientific events. The key event of the year is the IBT Students Day, where PhD students gather to discuss their scientific projects in the form of posters and talks. These gatherings serve as platforms for sharing your research accomplishments and failures, and exchanging ideas with other students while making connections that go beyond academic interests.

Aside organizing events, the committee is here for PhD students to reach out to with anything related to their PhD program. This can include suggestions from students, such as specific workshops and fun activities, or changes within IBT to make your life easier. The PhD committee is also here to help students with any PhD related problems and to accomplish this, the PhD committee works closely with one PI from IBT. All together, the committee is the link that connects PhD students with the IBT organization to help improve the PhD experience at IBT.

Reach out to the PhD committee at PHD_COMMITTEE@IBT.CAS.CZ to explore and share your love and hate relationship with your PhD.
