Students - Research projects

Possibilities

Within the Epidemiology and Diagnostics Group of the Parasitology Department there are many possibilities for students to do a research traineeship in the laboratory and/or in the field. We offer internships for students who study medicine, biomedical sciences, (medical) biology, health sciences or laboratory sciences at the HBO/Polytechnic. Actual information about traineeship possibilities within the research projects of the EpiDiag Group can be found on the Leiden University Blackboard. For more information, please contact Dr. Lisette van Lieshout. See also  2010 stagemarkt flyer (Dutch).
