A number of PhD fellowships are available in the International Max-Planck-Research School in Frankfurt am Main. The Max-Planck-Institutes of Biophysics and Brain Research and research groups at the Frankfurt University offer a unique environment for the study of biological membranes and membrane proteins.

PhD opportunities exist in internationally leading laboratories in the areas of membrane protein structure determination, membrane biochemistry, molecular biology, functional studies by electrophysiological and spectroscopic methods, computational biophysics and structural bioinformatics, as well as studies of whole membranes, cells and tissues. For a list of professors participating in the next round of admission, please see: list of professors
