Lausanne, April 2012

Dear Colleague,

The three doctoral programs affiliated with the School of Life Sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) -"Biotechnology & Bioengineering", "Molecular Life Sciences" and "Neuroscience"- provide training and research opportunities to highly motivated doctoral students in Lausanne, Switzerland. We aim at educating a new generation of scientists who develop and utilize innovative technologies that draw on the fields of chemistry, engineering, mathematics, physics and computer sciences to address fundamental biological questions.

Our programs have two hiring sessions per year and the next application deadline is May 1st, 2012. You will find further information about our programs on our website http://sv.epfl.ch/education.

We would greatly appreciate it if you could post the enclosed poster at a prominent place at your institute and inform talented students about these exciting programs.

Thank you very much for your help and collaboration.

Yours sincerely,

Professor Professor Professor
