Bocconi University PhD Scholarships 2011, Italy

The objective of the project is to use a modeling-based approach to gain further insights on the mechanistic of pro-inflammatory processes occurring in major diseases. More precisely, the study will focus on the characterization of calcium-dependent oxidative activity in human neutrophils. A computational approach will be used to rationalize data from the Life Science Research Unit into a mathematical model that can predict new functional schemes. This PhD studentship will involve collaboration between Pr. E. Tschirhart at the University of Luxembourg and Dr. G. Dupont at the Unit of Theoretical Chronobiology at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. It is expected that the student will share his/her time about equally between Luxembourg and Brussels.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 15  February 2011
