PhD opportunity: Investigating CDK control of the eukaryotic cell cycle at The Francis Crick Institute in London, United Kingdom. This funded PhD project is with Dr P Nurse and focuses on how cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) regulate the eukaryotic cell cycle. The project uses fission yeast as a model system to study how CDK activity rises through the cell cycle, how it coordinates S-phase and mitosis, how it is linked to cell growth, and how phosphorylation timing and substrate specificity are c...

About this position

This PhD position at Heidelberg University, under the supervision of Prof. Elmar Schiebel at the Centre for Molecular Biology (ZMBH), offers an exciting opportunity to investigate the molecular mechanisms of centriole biogenesis. The Schiebel research group is internationally recognized for its pioneering work on gamma-tubulin complexes, centrioles, and centrosome function.

The successful candidate will explore how centrioles duplicate and assemble microtubules, using a combination of advanced microscopy, biochemistry, and genetic tools. The project aims to unravel the complexities of centriole assembly and its implications for disease. The position is funded for three years, with remuneration based on TV-L (60%), and the starting date is flexible.

Applicants should have a Master’s degree or equivalent in Cell Biology, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, or a related field, and a strong passion for science. The PhD student will join the Heidelberg Biosciences International Graduate School (HBIGS), benefiting from a vibrant academic environment and access to cutting-edge facilities. The group encourages applications from qualified female candidates and persons with severe disabilities.

To apply, candidates should send a CV, cover letter, and contact information for two references to Prof. Elmar Schiebel. Additional information about the group’s research and application procedures can be found on the ZMBH and HBIGS websites. This position is ideal for candidates seeking to advance their expertise in cell biology and contribute to fundamental discoveries in centriole biology.
