Leukocyte trafficking is a fundamental biological process and the main topic of Collaborative Research Centre CRC 914. Its IRTG 914 supports principle investigators of the CRC and offers a well-structured graduate program to their natural science and medical doctoral candidates. The curriculum covers theoretical and methodological aspects of leukocyte trafficking as well as soft skills courses. Currently, the program includes a total of 55 doctoral candidates from all over the world. For the upcoming third funding period, we intend to further expand and refine our program to the needs of the doctoral candidates.
