Under the EU Horizon 2020 programme, 15 PhD positions are offered by a new EU Marie Sklodowska-Curie Initial Training Network (ITN) on ¨Improved production strategies for endangered freshwater species¨ (IMPRESS). IMPRESS is a nine partner European proposal, starting in January 2015, and co-ordinated by the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), Oslo, Norway.
Scientific excellence, creativity, entrepreneurship and innovation
IMPRESS will offer a highly interdisciplinary and international training for 15 PhD students throughout the EU, with a highly competitive salary and close contacts with industry, government agencies and leading laboratories. In addition to conducting research, students will be enrolled on an extensive programme of short training courses, and secondments at other partner institutions.

IMPRESS aims to develop new technologies and approaches for improved production, management and conservation of three threatened diadromous fish species, the European eel, Atlantic salmon and the sturgeons. IMPRESS is a intersectoral training network covering a range of multidisciplinary aspects including molecular biology, physiology, and aquaculture production, as well as human dimensions of conservation management.
