PhD in Genome Folding, Cell Biology and Genomics at Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) Centre for Genomic Regulation in Spain

PhD opportunity at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), Barcelona, Spain. This funded PhD project, part of the CRG International PhD Fellowships Programme 2027, focuses on the causes of clonal expansions of blood stem cells . The research asks why blood stem cell clones expand during ageing, increasing the risk of blood cancer and cardiovascular disease, even when most expansions do not have known driver mutations. The successful candidate will work on single-cell multi-omic and functional-g...

PhD opportunity: Single-cell lineage tracing at the scale of human populations at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), Barcelona, Spain. This funded PhD project is part of the CRG International PhD Fellowships Programme 2027 and is supervised by Dr Lars Velten . The project focuses on single-cell lineage tracing , genomics , cell biology , cancer biology , and the analysis of human population cohorts . The research asks whether the functional properties of expanding blood stem cell clones ca...

Funded PhD project at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona, Spain on how chromatin and epigenetic mechanisms control cell identity and how their dysregulation contributes to cancer , with emphasis on leukemia and pediatric brain tumors . The project is hosted by Dr Luciano Di Croce and is part of the CRG International PhD Fellowships Programme 2027 . The research environment is described as international and interdisciplinary, with access to core technologies, seminars, and trans...

Funded PhD opportunity at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona, Spain through the CRG International PhD Fellowships Programme 2027 . The project focuses on cell type-specific transcriptomes and asks how these transcriptomes are generated through microexon alternative splicing and fine transcriptional regulation , and how they contribute to human health, disease, and evolution . Research approaches include both computational and experimental methods. The post specifically mentions...
