Fully Funded PhD in Insect Virology: Insect Virome, Immunity and Fitness Wageningen University & Research in Netherlands

Wageningen University & Research is offering a fully funded PhD position in insect virology in the Insect Virology group of the Laboratory of Virology, Wageningen, Netherlands. The project examines how covert virus infections in insect hosts influence baculovirus-induced manipulation of caterpillar behaviour, including hyperactivity and climbing before death. The PhD researcher will compare behavioural manipulation across related and distantly related baculoviruses and lepidopteran hosts, invest...

Funded PhD opportunity at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, United Kingdom, on spatial and three-dimensional genome regulation during zygotic genome activation (ZGA) . This project explores how chromatin architecture, promoter-enhancer communication, boundary formation, insulation, and spatially restricted transcriptional states are coordinated as the embryonic genome becomes active. The work sits at the intersection of developmental genomics , chromatin biology , genomics ...

PhD student position available in Molecular Mechanisms of Root Stem Cell Regeneration Under Climate Instability at the Center for Plant Biotechnology and Genomics in Madrid, Spain . This opportunity is centered on plant biotechnology, molecular biology, root biology, genomics, transcriptomics, quantitative genetics, bioinformatics, and plant breeding. The project title suggests a strong focus on how root stem cells regenerate under climate-related stress or instability, making it relevant for st...
