A PhD is one of the most exciting times in the life of a scientist and has a major influence on their future career. The MRC Clinical Sciences Centre as a place of excellent science and education provides competitive PhD training, offering a outstanding starting platform for a career as a research scientist.
At the CSC, more than 30 research groups are organized in to three sections: Epigenetics, Development and Cancer; Experimental and Clinical Neuroscience, and Genomic, Metabolic and Cardiovascular Medicine. The mix of clinical and basic biological sciences creates a stimulating and flexible environment facilitating a broad education. The 3.5 year research programme provides a comprehensive scientific training in a vibrant international research environment with state-of-the-art research facilities and cutting-edge research projects. Laboratory work is supplemented by seminars, group lab meetings, training courses and participation in conferences. The degree is awarded by Imperial College, an outstanding university, ranked 5th in the world in the Times Higher Education 2007 ranking. More than 60 students from all over the world are currently working at the CSC creating a young dynamic and international atmosphere.
The PhD programme is managed by Prof. Anne Soutar. Students are selected from amongst highly qualified applicants after thorough interviews by a committee representing the CSC research sections. Competitive funding £16500 (non-taxable stipend) is provided for 8 UK PhD students and up to 3 European / International positions. In addition a large number of students supported by external fellowships also start their PhD at the CSC each year.
Students are guided by their supervisor(s) and 2 academic mentors during their PhD. The PhD will promote independence in research and encourages students to develop their own ideas.
The PhD programme at the CSC provides access to a wide variety of training courses, including a 3 day residential Research Skills Course, a fantastic 2 day presentation skills course and a career development course providing guidance for the next steps after PhD study. There is also an excellent lecture programme with featuring invited scientists as well as CSC Group Heads. Students present seminars on their research at the student seminar series, and posters on their research at the CSC Retreat. Each student may attend at least one UK conference and one overseas conference during the course of their PhD, providing invaluable experience and exposure to the wider scientific community.
The quality of the research and facilities, the collaborative spirit of the CSC and the international environment of the institute make this a special place to be.

Dear Sir / Madam,
This is Parastou Pourhassan, 28 years of age and Iranian. I’ve got the MA degree in TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). Recently, I’ve been graduated from one of the well-known and reliable universities of Iran with very good results and a perfect grade because of a very good performance on my defend session. I’ve always been a studious student in all of the levels of my educational periods and nowadays I’m teaching different English language courses at the universities, colleges and institutions in my country.
Now, at this level of education, I am so interested to continue my studies and get PhD in this subject of study in one of your universities. Something which is very important for me is taking a scholarship or a study grant that is usually offered to doctoral students. Please help me by giving some information regarding these issues. How and where can I apply the universities in order to take a study grant, salary or a scholarship during my doctoral studies?
Impatiently, I am looking forward to your answer…
Regards,
Parastou Pourhassan

Dear Sir.
I have the great honor and pleasure to write to you for the first time.
Please let me introduce myself. I am Mohamed Ghazaly working in Oncology Unit, General Surgery Department, Faculty of medicine, Tanta University, Egypt as Assistant lecturer in the field of general surgery. I had M.Sc. With general grade Excellent April 2007 Faculty of Medicine, Tanta University, Egypt in general surgery. I am writing to you asking if you accept me for doing PhD work (proposal project). I’m looking forward to get a sholarship in the field of liver resection, transplant, laparoscopy,oncological surgery or any related interventions and research. My CV is involved here as an attachment. I will be happy to be involved with any running projects in your institute. I hope that you accept me as a Ph. D. student in your institute. You are really supporting me to obtain a scholarship, and doing me and whole Egypt which suffer from liver disease a great favour. If a Phd scholarship is not available, a research and clinical training for one or two years even without a resulting degree would be fine. I am hopefully asking what about fund? As i do not have fund at present time, minimal fund would be ok. I hope you could help me about that.
Thank you very much and I am waiting for your kind reply.
Many thanks in advance
Faithfully: Mohamed Ghazaly
