Applications are invited for PhD positions at the University of Milan,
Department of Human Physiology. Deadline October 14th 2010.
The GRADUATE SCHOOL OF MORPHOLOGICAL, PHYSIOLOGICAL AND SPORT SCIENCES is
recruiting the next cohort of Research Postgraduate (PhD) students.
The aim of the School is to encourage studies to generate integrated
analyses of the morphological and physiological, qualitative and
quantitative aspects of biological structures at all levels of structural
organisation, from the cell to the tissue and the organ, right up to the
human organism as a whole. The convergence of the morphological and the
physiological approach is of particular significance in the field of studies
of motor control, of the nervous system, of physical and sports activities
and of the relations between structure and function in cellular membranes,
where there are extensive areas of synthesis and integration between anatomy
and physiology, of crucial interest to those who want to undertake more
advanced research.
The research activities conducted by the postgraduate students will focus on
the following areas: the cell and the extracellular matrix; the systems that
transport ions and organic substances through the epithelia; the ionic
channels responsible for phenomena of membrane excitability; the nervous
system; the locomotive apparatus, movement and motor control; muscular
bioenergetics; respiratory mechanics and ventilation control; exchanges of
liquids and solutes through the mesothelium and connecting tissue; the
stomatognathic apparatus; morphometrics and image analysis of biological
structures in various body hierarchies; physical activities and sport, in
particular aspects relative to the energy metabolism and hormone regulation,
doping and methodological aspects of sports training.
PhD Course in Physiology; Area: Biological Sciences; Sub-Area: Human (organ
and integrative) physiology; Academic-disciplinary sector: BIO/09
Duration: 3 years
Posts: 12 total; Fully Funded Scholarships: 5 from Milan University, 1 from
funds made available by the 2009 Youth Project, reserved for research
targeting the field of national investigation priority of ³New applications
of the biomedical industry²
Location: Department of Human Physiology, via Mangiagalli N° 32, 20133
