„Keine Schätzungen, exakte Messungen. Tatsachen haben bei mir immer gestimmt.“

Paul Ehrlich

The Paul Ehrlich Graduate School for Tumor Biology (PEGS) is the structured Graduate Program of the Georg-Speyer-Haus, Institute for Tumor Biology and Experimental Therapy (GSH) in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The interdisciplinary, international orientation of the GSH and its strong cooperation with the Goethe University in Frankfurt offers an attractive research environment at the interface between basic and clinical cancer research.

Within the program, researchers will receive a wide range of technical and scientific support as well as personal assistance. The support and assistance aim to foster young scientists by promoting scientific excellence and personal competence.

The goal of PEGS is to recognize individual potentials and to provide knowledge, skills and qualifications preparing for a successful professional career. Guidance by the scientific supervisor and a thesis advisory committee will be complemented by a catalogue of additional activities, all documented in a Study Record Book.

PEGS does not have an own admission procedure, instead, it automatically enrolls Doctoral Researchers starting their employment in any of the GSH research groups. For open doctoral positions in our research groups, check our career page

Full concept of the program and templates for Study Record Book and Annexes can be found here.
