PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, United Kingdom, focused on single-cell multi-omics , enhancer biology , and the developmental control of blood and cardiovascular fate . The project investigates how enhancer activity changes as blood, endothelial, and cardiac lineages emerge in the chick embryo. You will combine single-cell RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing to reconstruct gene-regulatory networks, identify candidate enhancers, and study how hematoendothelial progenit...

Texas A&M AgriLife Research is recruiting a full-time Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Entomology in College Station, Texas. The project focuses on gene-drive efficiency, DNA-repair pathway usage, transgene removal, and genome engineering in Drosophila melanogaster and Aedes aegypti . The researcher will design and conduct experiments involving CRISPR/Cas9 constructs, guide RNAs, donor plasmids, direct-repeat systems, gene-drive braking strategies, genetic crosses, embryo inj...
