About this position

PhD opportunity at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), Barcelona, Spain. This funded PhD project is part of the CRG International PhD Programme 2027 and focuses on decoding the molecular rules by which sensor proteins can monitor highly diverse and specific environmental chemicals.

The project combines large-scale mutagenesis and functional data generation, AI-enhanced evolutionary modeling, and engineering of chemically inducible protein folds. It is a strong fit for candidates interested in chemical biology, protein engineering, experimental genomics, computational genomics, molecular biology, genetics, genomics, and environmental biology.

Who should apply: motivated candidates with broad interests across chemical biology, protein engineering, and both experimental and computational genomics. Applicants should have an excellent academic record, prior research experience, a strong commitment to scientific research, and a high working knowledge of English.

Eligibility highlights: open to candidates of any nationality. Applicants must hold a relevant Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree in biomedical sciences within the European Higher Education System (minimum 300 ECTS), or an equivalent qualification that allows them to start a PhD thesis in Spain. Candidates expecting to complete the degree by September 2027 may also apply. Previous CRG PhD interviewees, current CRG Masters students, and those who have worked at CRG for more than 3 months before the deadline are not eligible.

Funding: the listing is described as a funded PhD project; no stipend amount is stated in the post.

Location: Barcelona, Spain.

How to apply: use the application portal linked on the FindAPhD page and submit your application online. Review the eligibility criteria before applying and register your interest through the project page.
