Descripción del proyecto
Consorcio de formación en investigación sobre los mecanismos de reparación del ADN
El equipo del proyecto RepState, financiado por las Acciones Marie Skłodowska-Curie, creará una red de formación en investigación para preparar a trece estudiantes de doctorado en bioquímica y biofísica para estudiar el modo de acción de proteínas críticas de reparación del ADN que actúan como máquinas de estado. La red cuenta con catorce participantes de universidades y centros de investigación y la industria, de los ámbitos de las ciencias naturales y sociales. El programa de doctorado multidisciplinar abarcará los principios químicos y físicos fundamentales de la biología y la salud humana. La formación incluirá la creación de métodos utilizando la tecnología y la experiencia proporcionadas por científicos de universidades y centros de investigación y de empresas de base tecnológica. Los estudiantes de doctorado en formación participarán en talleres científicos y cursos sobre competencias transferibles y desarrollo profesional, y difundirán los resultados del proyecto a un público diverso.
Objetivo
The Doctoral Network RepState aims to train a new generation of innovative scientists in biochemistry and biophysics to address central questions in biology concerning the mode of action of critical DNA Repair proteins that act as state machines. RepState consists of a highly collaborative consortium consisting of 14 participants coming from academia, industry and the creative sector, representing the natural sciences as well as the social sciences. Participating laboratories in RepState are part of established research schools within renowned research organizations and universities. This environment of excellence offers a multidisciplinary PhD program to 13 young researchers, through training in the fundamental chemical and physical principles that underlie biology and human health. In addition, training will focus on method development using technology and experience provided by the academic participants as well as by the two small technology-driven companies. Training incorporates a local program, rotations within partner laboratories, exposure to the non-academic sector and annual meetings. Fellows will follow scientific workshops, courses in transferable skills and career development, and will disseminate and communicate their projects to a diverse audience in close collaboration with the creative sector. The RepState fellows will form a new generation of mature and innovative European scientists with a thorough understanding of fundamental quantitative principles underlying biology, with experience in technique development, career perspectives in multiple sectors and an understanding of the importance of the role of fundamental science for society and human health.
