The goal of the NCCR TransCure educational program is to train doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows in translational research of membrane transport.

The training offers a theoretical and practical expertise on the role of membrane transporters in human diseases with a focus on drug development. Moreover, visiting courses and scientific events dealing with the latest topics pertinent to the TransCure network give young scientists an excellent opportunity to get in contact with researchers from related scientific fields.
