Doctor of Philosophy in Experimental Cardiovascular Research at University of Cambridge

This British Heart Foundation-funded four-year multidisciplinary PhD is designed to train the next generation of cardiovascular researchers to work in a cross-disciplinary environment that equips students with the technical skills and conceptual knowledge to tackle complex cardiovascular challenges. The programme draws on a shared pool of internationally recognised supervisors and aligned infrastructures between Cambridge and its partner institution, the University of Oxford. This will offer students genuine cross-disciplinary training.
