Voluntary academic year

We have very good experience with volunteers in the FWJ. We do not regularly take part in the usual allocation procedures, as the work we do does not correspond to the usual expectations of graduates regarding medical research - you will not be working in the laboratory, with patients, in the operating theater or with a microscope. However, if you are interested in working on scientific topics on the computer that are relevant to patient care, in intensive training in scientific principles and in a friendly team, we look forward to receiving your application!
