Characterising the cellular barrier to the inner ear for drug delivery University of Auckland in New Zealand

Doctoral candidate with application for an FWO grant at KU Leuven (Leuven, Belgium) in the interdisciplinary research facility Molecular Medicine within the Department of Pharmaceutical and Pharmacological Sciences. The project is led by Prof. Dr. Zeger Debyser and focuses on human LINE-1 retrotransposition , host factors that facilitate LINE-1 transposition, and the development of inhibitors in cell culture and animal models. The research also uses IPSC-derived human neuron cultures , linking t...

Postdoctoral Fellow opportunity at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in the Scorletti Lab (Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Medicine), Baltimore, Maryland, United States. The lab of Dr. Eleonora Scorletti is recruiting a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to work on lipid metabolism , gastroenterology/hepatology , and the cellular mechanisms linking naturally occurring genetic variants to liver and adipose tissue biology. The project combines recall-by-genot...

Postdoctoral Research Associate opportunity in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Arizona (Tucson, Arizona, United States). The lab focuses on musculoskeletal trauma healing , translational science , and regenerative medicine , including cellular mechanisms of skin, peripheral nerve, skeletal muscle, and bone repair. The project involves testing repurposed FDA-approved drugs/compounds to improve outcomes from pre-clinical studies toward clinical translation...

KU Leuven in Belgium is advertising a PhD position in a research project on LINE-1 transposition , host factors , and their role in human disease. The group is internationally known for work on HIV host factors , including LEDGF/p75 and Transportin-SR2, and has extended this expertise to LINE-1, a human retrotransposon implicated in neuroinflammatory diseases . The project investigates how host factors facilitate LINE-1 transposition and aims to identify inhibitors of LINE-1 transposition in cel...

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in post-transcriptional control of the segmentation clock and somitogenesis . This project sits at the intersection of developmental biology , molecular biology , cell biology , biochemistry , and bioinformatics . The research investigates how RNA-binding proteins and microRNAs regulate clock gene expression during early embryogenesis, with a focus on the segmentation clock, somite formation, and disease relevance such as congenital scoliosis and T-cel...
