Subject: Inviting applications for a new PhD in Quantitative Biosciences at
Georgia Tech - deadline 12/15
To:


Dear Colleague,

I am writing to follow-up on my email from earlier this Fall.  I am the
Director of the newly launched Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in
Quantitative Biosciences (QBioS) at Georgia Tech:

http://qbios.gatech.edu

The QBioS PhD program includes more than 45 program faculty from 7
different Schools in the College of Sciences. The mission of QBioS is to
educate students and advance research in understanding principles
underlying the dynamics, structure, and function of living systems.

The QBioS PhD is currently welcoming applications from students to start
their doctoral training in Fall 2016.  The deadline for applications is
December 15, 2015 with detailed information available here:

http://qbios.gatech.edu/prospective-student/overview

I invite you to share this email and the attached flyer to students in your
local communities.  We welcome applications from students from diverse
backgrounds, including those with training in physics, mathematics,
computer science, engineering and the biosciences.

To this end, I am organizing a recurring series of online chats with
prospective students. The next two chats take place this Friday, November
13. Students can register to participate here:

11/13 - 9:00AM EST - QBioS at Georgia Tech Program Chat

11/13 - 4:00PM EST - QBioS at Georgia Tech Program Chat

Many thanks in advance for sharing news of our initiative.  Please do not
hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

All best,
Joshua Weitz
