Students

The students of our doctoral programme are virtually divided into three subgroups: HOROS students, HOROS associated students and HOROS affiliated students. All of them are highly qualified candidates and will undergo the same educational programme within their PhD-studies. The groups differ in the following:

Horos Students

are completely funded by the Austrian Science Funds (FWF), including education and conference costs, consumables and additional salary for up to an additional (fourth) year including consumables, if abroad for half-a-year during the first 3 years.

Marina Barros- Pinkelnig
Master of Science in Infectiology
horos associated students
are additional students supervised by the HOROS faculty members, but funded by a non-HOROS excellence grant, such as other FWF projects, EU, Bozen-Innsbruck-doctoral programme (BI-DOC), Land of Tyrol, University of Innsbruck or Medical University of Innsbruck. HOROS pays for education & conference costs, but not for consumables.

Former students

Some students left our programme due to individual reasons. Cornelia Fabritius followed her supervisor Katja Kotsch to Berlin and is presently submitting her PhD thesis at the Charité. Valentina Stolz left her former supervisor Cornelia Lass-Flörl and is presently pursuing her PhD thesis at the Medical University of Vienna. Daniela Krenn has given birth to her son. Gian Marco Ludovici left for personal problems. We wish all of them the best for their future!
