Two PhD students at IRB Barcelona have talked to the programme Telenotícies broadcasted by TV3. Benjamí Oller, with the Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology Lab, and Constanze Braasch, with the Structural and Computational Biology Lab, are two of the ten PhD students that joined IRB Barcelona last September thanks to the “La Caixa” International PhD Programme. “The multidisciplinary research environment of the institute” and the “strong investments in infrastructure in Spain” are two of the main reasons why they joined IRB Barcelona for their PhD studies.
