PhD Fellowship 2010 on Molecular and Cellular Effects of Swimming Exercise, School of Biology University of Barcelona
Jan 24A 4-year PhD fellowship (FPI program) funded by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación from Spain is available. This fellowship is linked to a MICINN funded project (AGL2009-07006/ ACU) entitled “Physiological consequences of exercise in trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss): effects on muscle growth, immune system and reproduction (SWIMMING TROUT)”. The student will conduct studies that aim at describing the molecular and cellular effects of swimming exercise on skeletal muscle growth, the immune response and reproduction in the rainbow trout. The candidate will join the Molecular Physiology Group at the School of Biology, University of Barcelona , Spain , a dynamic research group led by Dr. Josep V. Planas that is currently composed of two postdoctoral researchers and three PhD students.
