UBIMOTIF: 15 PhD students (Early Stage Researchers) 2043 views

UBIMOTIF, European Training Network is offering 15 Early Stage Researchers (PhD) positions under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant. The ubiquitin system is a major promising source for novel therapeutic approaches but its potential has not been fully exploited due to our limited understanding of ways to target the ubiquitin system.
