Cross-talk between the nervous and immune systems is critical for survival, and disrupted neuro-immune communication is observed in many debilitating conditions, including chronic inflammatory, neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. To better understand these conditions, we urgently need a new generation of interdisciplinary researchers that can work across the neuro-immune spectrum. The Wellcome Trust ‘Neuro-Immune Interactions in Health & Disease’ PhD Training Programme is designed to provide the requisite training, using state-of-the-art technologies, cutting-edge science and supervision methods. In line with Wellcome’s new Research Culture (#ReimagineResearch), we are committed to provide scientific excellence in a positive working environment. Our programme will develop and share practices that bring science and culture together, placing both firmly at the heart of our training strategy and your research journey.Depending on your background, preference and consultation with the programme directors, you can choose one of two pathways through years 1- 4 of this course: 1+3, with three laboratory rotations culminating in an MRes in year 1, followed by a three-year PhD. 0+4, consisting of a 4-year PhD with compulsory training elements in year 1.The programme is primarily based at the Guy's campus and secondary at Denmark Hill campus.
