PhD Student in Biology, Epigenetics, and DNA Repair at the Institute of Biophysics Institute of Biophysics of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Czech Republic

The Institute of Biophysics of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Brno, Czech Republic, is recruiting a PhD student for its Scientific Department of Cell Biology and Epigenetics. The project focuses on the role of histone deacetylases and epigenetic modifications of histones in DNA repair mechanisms. The successful candidate will work with mouse and human cell models and cell culture, and will use techniques including immunofluorescence, advanced confocal microscopy, local chromatin microirradiati...

The Plant Chromatin Organization and Function Group at the Institute of Experimental Botany (IEB), Czechia, is offering a PhD position focused on barley reproductive biology, polyploidy, and seed development. The research aims to unravel the genetic and developmental consequences of ploidy transitions in barley seeds, particularly addressing why new polyploids like barley often exhibit poor seed viability. The project will dissect how ploidy changes affect barley seed formation, with a strong fo...

PhD position at the Institute of Biophysics of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Brno, Czech Republic, in the DNA Replication & Genome Stability Laboratory led by Dr. Hana Polasek-Sedlackova . The project, How Cells Scale Genome Duplication During Development and Disease , focuses on fundamental questions in biology , cell biology , developmental biology , genome stability , and DNA replication . The lab studies how mammalian cells dynamically regulate DNA replication initiation across developmen...

Postdoctoral position in Antibiotic Development at the Biozentrum, University of Basel, in Switzerland. This opportunity focuses on infection biology , microbiology , cell biology , and antibiotic development , with a project on non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in a physiologically relevant human airway infection model . The work is shared between the Boeck Lab (Department of Biomedicine) and the Jenal Lab (Biozentrum), and is embedded in the Swiss research consortium NCCR AntiResist . The pro...

Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig, Germany is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher (f/m/d) in the research group NIBI led by Dr. Christian Sieben . The project sits at the intersection of virology , cell biology , microscopy , and infectious diseases . The group studies how viruses use and alter cellular structures for entry and assembly, how they exploit plasma membrane signaling, and how these mechanisms can be used to inhibit infection. A key goal is to block virus...
