Funded PhD opportunity at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona, Spain through the CRG International PhD Fellowships Programme 2027 . The project asks a fundamental question in genome folding : how do the two meters of DNA in our genome fit and organize inside a micron-sized nucleus, and how does improper folding contribute to disease? This PhD is a strong fit for candidates interested in cell biology , genetics , genomics , human genetics , molecular biology , molecular genetics ...

About this position

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 can predict disease risk better than somatic mutations, with relevance to ageing, blood cancer, and cardiovascular disease.

The ideal candidate should have a strong background in computational biology, an interest in large-scale cohort studies, and a good understanding of molecular biology. The post is advertised as a funded PhD project for students worldwide.

The Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) is an international biomedical research institute in Barcelona with strong core technologies, interdisciplinary teams, seminars, and training in transferable skills. Interested applicants should use the application link on the project page and follow the CRG PhD application process.
