Description of Content:
Situated advantageously at the heart of Western Europe in Germany's largest metropolis, the Graduate School of Biomedical Science at the University of Duisburg-Essen integrates all PhD and MD graduates within the Faculties of Biology and Medicine into a cutting-edge interdisciplinary study programme offering doctoral students an outstanding, globally-focused academic education. Our current research foci are:

- Host-Pathogen Interaction (GRK 1045)
- Gene Transcription (GRK 1431)
- Cellular & Molecular Immunology
- Genetics & Cell Biology
- Ischaemia, Reperfusion & Angiogenesis
- Tumour & Signalling

In addition, our rapidly-expanding biomedical campus offers young scientists access to state-of-the-art research facilities and the opportunity to work at the interface of basic and clinical science.

Within the ever-growing range of graduate school activities, doctoral students are frequently given the opportunity for close international interaction and cross-cultural networking with fellow graduates, visiting researchers and keynote speakers.

The working language of the graduate school is English. A dual rationale lies behind this decision: firstly, German-speaking participants are offered a platform for the intensive development of their English skills within a familiar working environment and, secondly, international graduates are in no way disadvantaged by a foreign language barrier when participating in the BIOME programme.

A guiding mission of the graduate school is its focus on the principles of fair play and the practice of scientific integrity. Awareness of and adherence to good scientific conduct is central to the rigorous training of young researchers for the protection of their intellectual property and rights and the ethical development of successful careers.

The university's drive to provide structures promoting soft skills, gender equality and family-oriented support further contributes to an excellent, all-round tertiary environment.
