PhD in Biochemistry, Cancer Biology, and Molecular Biology on mTORC2 activation loops Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity in DNA repair at stalled replication forks at the Medical Research Council (Cambridge), Laboratory of Molecular Biology in the United Kingdom . The project focuses on DNA repair , replication stress , and the Fanconi Anaemia (FA) pathway , with particular attention to how cells respond to DNA crosslinks and stalled replication forks. The research aims to understand the molecular mechanisms of crosslink repair and the role of the FANCD2-FANCI heterodimer and FA core complex in mai...

PhD opportunity in Structural Biology , Molecular Biology , Biochemistry , and Human Genetics focused on the human replisome and the mechanisms of DNA replication. The project is hosted by the Medical Research Council (Cambridge) Laboratory of Molecular Biology in the United Kingdom and is supervised by Dr J Yeeles . The lab studies how the human replication machinery is assembled, how it functions during normal DNA duplication, and how it responds to obstacles such as DNA damage and protein bar...

PhD opportunity: Investigating CDK control of the eukaryotic cell cycle at The Francis Crick Institute in London, United Kingdom. This funded PhD project is with Dr P Nurse and focuses on how cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) regulate the eukaryotic cell cycle. The project uses fission yeast as a model system to study how CDK activity rises through the cell cycle, how it coordinates S-phase and mitosis, how it is linked to cell growth, and how phosphorylation timing and substrate specificity are c...
