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 opportunity in plant chemical defence, single-cell biology, genomics, and metabolomics at The Sainsbury Laboratory in Norwich, United Kingdom, working with the Osbourn group at the John Innes Centre . This project asks where plants make their medicine: how different cells in infected leaves activate distinct chemical defence pathways, how those cell states are organised around infection sites, and how this organisation may reveal new biosynthetic pathways. The research combines plant biology...
