CEMBIO from San Pablo University; National Centre for Cardiovascular Research from Spain; Medical Faculty Mannheim of the Heidelberg University; Szentágothai Research Centre of the University of Pécs; Białystok University of Technology; and CenStat from Hasselt University – all these partnerships give us a tremendous opportunity to pursue actions which are extremely important for European science and higher education. The huge data sets generated through large-scale research require expertise in medical biology as well as proficiency in advanced data analysis methods. Partnerships set up by doctoral students with MUB and partner organisations in the course of study can be during the studies can be a starting point of future collaboration. Young, well-educated researchers can find permanent employment at MUB or partner companies.
