Fully funded PhD studentship in parasite flagella, structural cell biology, and parasitology University of Cambridge in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, United Kingdom on structural and cellular approaches to understand microtubule motors . This project sits at the intersection of cell biology , molecular biology , and structural biology , with a strong focus on microtubule motors such as dynein and kinesin . The research asks how motors are linked to cargos and coordinated to deliver organelles, RNAs, and proteins to the correct destination, especially...

PhD opportunity: Visualizing cellular proteostasis at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology, with supervision by Dr Juliette Fedry. This project focuses on proteostasis —how cells synthesize, fold, localize, and degrade proteins to maintain protein homeostasis. The lab studies how the proteostasis network is organized across cell types, how it changes under different physiological conditions, and how it becomes dysregulated during stress and disease. Research ...

Umeå University in Sweden is advertising a postdoctoral position in the Department of Molecular Biology for a project titled “The role of exported proteins during malaria infection.” The research focuses on malaria parasite biology , especially how Plasmodium exported proteins contribute to host cell invasion, proliferation, nutrient uptake, waste excretion, adhesion, and organ sequestration. The project uses the genetically tractable mouse malaria model Plasmodium berghei and will also follow u...

PhD opportunity in the macromolecular basis of nuclear remodelling in humans at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology. This project in structural biology , cell biology , and molecular biology explores how the nucleus is reshaped by cytoskeletal filaments in human cells and how this architecture contributes to cell migration, tissue formation, immune response, and cancer progression. The lab is especially interested in the high-order organisation of the cytosk...

PhD opportunity in protein maturation, quality control, and disease at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology with Dr R Hegde . This project sits at the intersection of cell biology , molecular biology , and structural biology . The group studies how mammalian cells produce, insert, fold, and assemble membrane proteins such as GPCRs, transporters, receptors, and ion channels, and how cells recognize and degrade unassembled “orphan” proteins to maintain cellular...
