Master's thesis projects

Within the systems biology group, we typically have more project ideas than we have time to do. This means that we are almost always open to bringing in students interested in doing a master's thesis project. We try to tailor the project to fit with the students interests and skills. If you are interested in doing a project with us, don't hesitate to reach out to us to get more information.

Below is a list of some of the master's thesis work we have done earlier:
