Empowering Curious Researchers

The Vienna BioCenter is a leading life science location in Europe: a thriving campus that combines basic research institutes, universities and biotech companies.

Four research institutes collaborate in creating an exceptional training environment, where students and junior researchers have all the necessary resources to conduct meaningful projects: there is virtually no experiment that cannot be done at the VBC. More on Research at VBC

Our training programs are designed to prime and/or advance learning of critical skills, while supporting students and postdocs to become independent, critical and innovative thinkers, establish professional networks and ultimately move on to their next position.

What sets us apart? Two main factors contribute to our vibrant scientific community:

  1. An extremely collaborative faculty, people that thrive from the success of their colleagues on campus and are extremely supportive.
  2. A supreme research infrastructure: state-of-the-art equipment and facilities managed by top expert.

If you are passionate about science and have a pioneering mindset, then join us in Vienna!
