These studentships are part of the Wellcome Trust's flagship four-year PhD
programme scheme which aims to support the most promising students to
undertake in-depth postgraduate research training. The first year combines
taught courses with laboratory rotations to broaden students' knowledge of
the subject area. At the end of the first year, students will make an
informed choice of their three-year PhD research project.

There are three places available in the Institute of
Neuroscience<http://www.ncl.ac.uk/ion/>at Newcastle University for
entry in October 2008. The programme is designed
to provide specialised training for physical and computational scientists (
e.g. graduate physicists, chemists, engineers, mathematicians and computer
scientists) wishing to apply their skills to a research neuroscience career.

For further details about the programme, please see
