LIMM is a research institute dedicated to understanding the molecular basis of human diseases and to translational research to couple molecular biology to clinical practice. Research in the institute spans cancer biology, molecular genetics, neuroscience, molecular haematology, musculoskeletal disease and pathology. Further information about LIMM can be found at www.limm.leeds.ac.uk
Studentships are available from October 2010 for a fixed term of 3 years. Each studentship will fund EU/Home studentship fees, a stipend at MRC rate and laboratory consumables.

* mechanisms of gene regulation
* molecular genetics
* neurobiology
* cancer biology
* cancer therapeutics
* bioinformatics
* immunology
* haematopoiesis
* translational medicine
* musculoskeletal disease mechanisms
* stem cell biology
Details of all the projects offered can be found at: www.limm.leeds.ac.uk/studentships2010.htm
Applicants should have, or be expecting to obtain, a relevant first degree at a standard of 2:1 or above and are encouraged to contact the appropriate supervisor to discuss the project before submitting their application by the 4 January 2010 closing date.
