Funded PhD opportunity at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, United Kingdom, on spatial and three-dimensional genome regulation during zygotic genome activation (ZGA) . This project explores how chromatin architecture, promoter-enhancer communication, boundary formation, insulation, and spatially restricted transcriptional states are coordinated as the embryonic genome becomes active. The work sits at the intersection of developmental genomics , chromatin biology , genomics ...

PhD opportunity at the Earlham Institute in Norwich, United Kingdom , focused on engineering fitness in disease-resistant crops . This project sits at the intersection of agriculture , biology , genetics , genomics , molecular biology , bioinformatics , and genetic engineering , with a strong emphasis on engineering biology and laboratory automation. The research addresses a major challenge in crop improvement: disease resistance can protect plants but sometimes reduces growth and yield. The pro...

PhD opportunity at the John Innes Centre in Norwich, United Kingdom: Manipulating meiotic crossover control in wheat . This project sits at the intersection of genetics , genomics , plant cell biology , molecular genetics , bioinformatics , and quantitative genetics , with a strong applied focus on improving wheat breeding. The research asks whether meiotic crossover patterns in wheat can be deliberately altered to increase recombination in regions of the genome that are normally difficult to br...
