The consortium conducts research on malaria parasites and their interactions with both mammalian hosts and mosquito vectors.

EVIMalaR’s International PhD Programme aims to train talented young scientists from both North and South in malaria research, with emphasis on interdisciplinary approaches. It thus offers a unique opportunity for students to become engaged in malaria research in world-leading malaria research institutions.

Training of the future EVIMalaR students is conducted through the virtual European Malaria Graduate School, which is organized and operated in collaboration with the EMBL and the Heidelberg University.

22 PhD positions are available within the EVIMalaR PhD Programme to be staffed in two calls. During this first call 11 fellowships have been given (funded for a maximum of 3.5 years), linked to collaborative research projects, each supervised by two Principal Investigators from different countries.
