Training components at the network level include the following:
- co-supervision and mentoring
- a structured set of obligatory training elements,
- active involvement of participating students in organisational tasks, communication and dissemination,
- Europe-wide and cross-sectoral networking,
- emphasis on complementary training to improve communicational, entrepreneurial and business skills,
- reciprocal integration of experimentation and modelling in biology.
Local training programmes

GALLERY
Migrating primary keratinocyte with labelled cell adhesions. Based on a fine tuned regulation adhesion structures are continuously formed, modified and finally disassembled.
Primary keratinocytes apply traction forces upon migration. Using fluorescent fusion proteins (GFP-vinculin), adhesion structures can be visualized. Those sites are used by the cell for cell force transmission to the underlying substrate. In case those substrates are elastic, forces cause deformation fields that can be visualized using marker particles.
