PhD Position in Biochemical Characterisation of Signal Integration in Plants University of Amsterdam in Netherlands

Utrecht University is advertising a PhD position in the biophysical origins of RNA toxicity in Huntington’s disease at the Faculty of Science, Department of Chemistry in the Netherlands. The project investigates how expanded HTT mRNA forms condensates and aggregates and how these RNA species contribute to neuronal toxicity. The work sits at the interface of biophysics , biochemistry , and disease research, with a strong focus on single-molecule experiments , optical tweezers , confocal fluoresce...

Wageningen University & Research is advertising a postdoctoral researcher position in the Biosystematics Group on plant immune responses against insect egg deposition . The project is part of the NWO Open Technology Programme grant Early Intervention Pest Resistance (EI-RESIST): Understanding and harnessing egg-killing traits for crop resistance breeding , in collaboration with Klaas Bouwmeester, Lotte Caarls, Robin van Velzen, and plant breeding companies. The postdoc will join an insect-focuse...

Postdoctoral position at the University of Groningen (Netherlands) in a multidisciplinary consortium project on hybrid nanopore sensors for single-molecule protein and peptide analysis . The project brings together the Maglia lab at Groningen, the Vorobieva lab at VUB-VIB Center for Structural Biology (Brussels), and imec (Leuven). The research combines biological nanopore engineering , de novo protein design , and solid-state nanofabrication to develop next-generation hybrid nanopore devices. C...

Radboud University Medical Center (Radboudumc) in the Netherlands is advertising a PhD candidate position in the Thrombosis and Hemostasis research group within the Laboratory of Hematology.

ORFeus is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Network coordinated by the Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology in Utrecht, Netherlands. It is recruiting 15 PhD/doctoral candidates for projects starting in March 2027 . The network focuses on the dark proteome , especially small open reading frames (smORFs) and the microproteins they encode. The research aims to discover and annotate these proteins, understand how their translation is regulated, and test their relevance for cancer an...
