Doctoral (PhD) Student Position in Molecular Virology Karolinska Institutet in Sweden

University of Gothenburg is advertising a postdoctoral position in structural studies of mitochondrial DNA replication in Gothenburg, Sweden. The project sits within an interdisciplinary research team combining molecular biology , biochemistry , structural biology , and cell biology to study how human mitochondrial DNA replication is organized and regulated, and how defects in these processes contribute to human disease. The research focus is on the molecular mechanisms controlling mtDNA replica...

Örebro University is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to join the Cellular and Molecular Virology research group within the School of Medical Sciences . The project sits in the field of Biomedicine and focuses on the development and evaluation of novel mRNA-based vaccines against tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) . The successful researcher will work on experimental virology and vaccine research with a strong emphasis on the molecular biology of tick-borne flaviviruses. The project includ...

This postdoctoral project in the Stael Lab at the Department of Molecular Sciences , Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences , is focused on protease biochemistry and plant wound responses . The successful candidate will join the Uppsala BioCenter environment in Uppsala and work within a research programme that investigates how damage-activated proteolysis shapes plant responses to wounding and herbivory. The advertised research builds on a recently identified signalling pathway in plant wou...

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in the area of cell biology , biochemistry , biophysics , genetics , and molecular biology . The project, supervised by Prof Tomo Tanaka , investigates how cells achieve correct chromosome biorientation during mitosis by regulating kinetochore-microtubule interactions . The work focuses on the outer kinetochore complexes Ndc80 and Dam1 , the role of Aurora B kinase in error correction, and how mechanical tension stabilises proper chromosome segregation...

PhD opportunity in pathological protein assembly in neurodegenerative diseases at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom . The project is centered on the molecular pathology of neurodegeneration, with a focus on amyloid filament formation by disease-associated proteins such as TDP-43 , annexin A11 , and TAF15 . Two PhD project directions are described. One aims to reproduce pathological protein filament structures in vitro using protein biochemist...
