About this position
PhD opportunity in the lab of Ines Cebola at Imperial College London in the United Kingdom.
The project is titled “From genetic risk to disease mechanism: functional genomics of steatotic (fatty) liver disease” and is a 4-year fully funded studentship. It uses human liver models, CRISPR functional genomics, and computational approaches to investigate what disease-associated noncoding variants do and how they contribute to disease.
This studentship is funded through the UK Human Functional Genomics Doctoral Landscape Award (FGx-DLA), an MRC-backed national programme spanning Imperial, Exeter, Cambridge, Edinburgh, King’s, and Oxford. The programme includes cohort training in functional genomics, statistics, bioinformatics, and AI.
The ideal candidate would have a background or strong interest in genomics, molecular biology, or computational biology, and be keen to combine both wet-lab and dry-lab work. This is a strong fit for students interested in disease mechanism, liver biology, CRISPR screening, and computational analysis of regulatory variation.
Applicants should follow the project link for the detailed application information. Questions are welcomed by the supervisor.
