The call for applications for the Doctoral Programme in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Applied to Chemistry, Materials and Biosciences, PTNMRPhD, is open until 28th February. There are seven PhD fellowships available for highly motivated candidates that will be selected based on their educational background, academic qualification, research experience, motivation and scientific ability.
The aim of the PTNMR doctoral training program is to foster the development of NMR spectroscopy in Portugal by training students within a specific research plan, to take the maximum advantage of this powerful technique in a variety of key research areas: Structural Biology, Material Sciences, Small Molecules, and Metabolomics & Metabonomics.
The PTNMR PhD program has 3 main objectives
(i) enhance the student’s skills and competences in the understanding of NMR and its application in different research fields;
(ii) develop strong cross-disciplinary skills with complementary techniques and disciplines in Portugal and abroad;
(iii) facilitate and promote the exchange of knowledge, best practices and ideas within the PTNMR network, while carrying out state-of-the-art-research.
This training program will contribute to take the maximum gain of the recently installed national research infrastructure that integrates the national Roadmap of Research Infrastructures.
The PhD Program is funded by Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia and is coordinated by Eurico Cabrita at FCT-NOVA, ITQB NOVA, FCT NOVA, Técnico, Universidade de Coimbra, Universidade de Aveiro, Universidade da Beira Interior and Universidade do Porto.
