Postdoctoral Fellowships - Life Sciences

VIP2 offers an outstanding research environment, and will boost the careers of fellows by supporting them with a structured training and career development program under the principle “Inform, Inspire, Innovate”:

Inform via structured mentoring and training programs
Inspire by providing outstanding supervision within a thriving life science research and biotech center
Innovate by supporting fellows to make ground-breaking discoveries that enable them to become leaders in the academic sector and beyond
VIP2 will foster exposure to different sectors and facilitate career transitions. The program offers a two-mentor scheme (the second mentor can be from a different sector) and opportunities for a two-month secondment in sectors of the fellows’ choice. Fellows will be advised and supported by an inter-sectoral advisory board.

The research topics of the VIP2 participating groups cover the full scope of modern life sciences. An extensive collection of research models as well as state-of-the-art facilities on campus enable our scientists to push the boundaries of our knowledge and technology. One hallmark of the VBC is its extremely collaborative and collegial atmosphere highlighted by many integrated research projects, shared infrastructure and joint social events.
