About this position

PhD opportunity at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona, Spain on Decoding the Poly(A) Tail: RNA Regulation and Cancer.

The project is hosted by the Gebauer lab and supervised by Dr Fátima Gebauer. Research focuses on RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), mRNA translation, poly(A) tail biology, genomics, and how RNA regulatory networks influence cancer progression and cancer cell plasticity. A key aim is to develop methods to identify and characterize the poly(A)-tail-bound proteome and its functional interactions in cancer cells.

This is a funded PhD project under the CRG International PhD Fellowships Programme 2027. The post is aimed at students worldwide.

Applicants should have a degree in molecular biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, or a related discipline. The post also prefers candidates with prior experience in RNA-related research.

To apply, use the application link on the FindAPhD page and submit your application through the CRG recruitment process. The listing does not provide a separate deadline beyond the date shown on the page.
