Leuven International Doctoral School Biomedical Sciences
http://gbiomed.kuleuven.be/phd/
The Leuven Doctoral School in Biomedical Sciences aims to train young biomedical researchers to explore the fundamentals of living systems at all levels - from gene to cell to body and mind - and to use that knowledge to improve human health.


Finland

FinnBioNet
http://www.biocenter.helsinki.fi/finbionet/
FinBioNet - Finnish Graduate School Network in Life Sciences is a national network of graduate schools in biosciences and health sciences. Its purpose is to promote research training cooperation and to coordinate research courses. Its infrastructure is financed by the Academy of Finland and it is coordinated by the University of Helsinki.

The Finnish Graduate School system was started in 1995 by the Ministry of Education to improve the quality and effectiveness of research and research training. There are now 28 graduate schools in health sciences/biotechnology in Finland. They offer 4-year research training programmes leading to the MD/PhD degree. Research training consists of thesis research and 20-40 credits of formal studies.
