SUMMER RESEARCH PROGRAM 2007 - School of Life Sciences - Ecole

Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland:
  July 16- September 14, 2007

 The summer research program offers intensive summer research
 training opportunities to undergraduate students interested in
 research  careers in the life sciences. We seek to attract the best
 candidates and thus financial compensation will be provided to cover
 successful candidates' living and travel expenses.
 Biomedical research increasingly relies on quantitative approaches
 and cutting edge technology.  Many would agree that the future of
 the  life sciences lies at the crossroads of biology, hard sciences
 and engineering.  The School of Life Sciences at the Ecole
 Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland -
 http://sv.epfl.ch/page58921-en.html-, was created on this premise,
 responding to a demonstrated interest in biologically relevant
 questions among EPFL professors and researchers in chemistry,
 physics, mathematics, computer science, and engineering.
 Capitalizing on its initial development in neuroscience (under the
 auspices of the Brain Mind Institute) and biotechnology (led by the
 Institute of Bioengineering), the School of Life Sciences has
 continued to grow;  in 2005 the Swiss Institute for Experimental
 Cancer Research (ISREC) joined EPFL, and in the same year EPFL
 launched  the Global Health Institute. In all areas, we emphasize
 integrated approaches  spanning a range of disciplines from
 functional genomics to high-tech bioengineering.

 Selection Criteria: The summer research fellowships will be  awarded
 on a competitive basis, taking into consideration several criteria
 including the student's academic record, personal statement and
 letters of recommendation.

 Additional information and the application are available online:

 Deadline for application: March 19th, 2007 Contact Email: summer.sv at epfl.ch
