DOHA: Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar’s (WCMC-Q) Biomedical Research Training Programme for Nationals will recommence in January 2014. The research training programme is a unique opportunity for Qatari college graduates with an interest in biomedical research to gain hands on experience in world-class research laboratories at WCMC-Q.
Although the programme is aimed at recent graduates who are interested in pursuing a career as a bench or clinical researcher, applications will be welcomed from nationals with a variety of degrees, for example computer science, business management or communication.
The training programme is a full-time, six-month employment commitment with trainees receiving a graduation certificate upon completion. The programme is fully funded by WCMC-Q, and is organised in partnership with the Qatar Science Leadership Programme at Qatar Foundation. Applications can be submitted online until October 21 at http://researchtraining.qatar-weill.cornell.edu/pages/application.aspx. An information session will be held at WCMC-Q on September 30.
