JSMC Summer School 2025

This year we will host the first Summer School at our graduate school. Application is open to national and international MSc. graduates in biosciences, biochemistry, bioinformatics, or related fields who are interested in pursuing a doctorate in Microbial Communication.

We crafted an engaging two-week program with scientific modules, lectures, a workshop, and social events (e.g. night hike, Midsummer party, etc.). Additionally, the scientific program will offer selected candidates the opportunity of on-site visits to the Bio-Science industry in and around Jena, participate in lectures on state-of-the-art live-cell imaging with our collaborators from overseas, and get in touch with PhD representatives and spokespersons of our graduate school as well as getting the opportunity to chat with research group leaders and industry professionals alike.

Accommodations including dinners, and travel expenses will be financially supported by the JSMC for all selected participants. Guided tours in and around Jena, the institutes, campuses, and tickets for public transport will also be part of the Summer School package.
