MRC Integrative-Toxicology Training Partnership (ITTP) Call for Applications
The MRC is launching a new initiative aimed at improving and securing capacity in the toxicological sciences. Through partnerships between academia, industry and government the initiative will seek to build the expertise in toxicology and related disciplines that is required to ensure the safe and effective development of drugs, chemicals and consumer products, and to provide better assessment of risk deriving from environmental exposure.
The MRC-ITTP will run an annual competition to support PhD studentships and Career Development Fellowships in Toxicology. The emphasis will be on aligning modern cell and molecular biology with other fundamental and health-related disciplines relevant to Toxicology to provide an integrated approach to research and training in the toxicological sciences.
The ITTP will be managed by the MRC Toxicology Unit at the University of Leicester.
