PhD Studentship in Fungal Immune Systems and NLR Gene Functions University of Birmingham in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity at the University of Dundee in post-transcriptional control of the segmentation clock and somitogenesis . This project sits at the intersection of developmental biology , molecular biology , cell biology , biochemistry , and bioinformatics . The research investigates how RNA-binding proteins and microRNAs regulate clock gene expression during early embryogenesis, with a focus on the segmentation clock, somite formation, and disease relevance such as congenital scoliosis and T-cel...

The University of Manchester is recruiting a full-time, fixed-term postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Kulathu group in the Division of Molecular and Cellular Function, School of Biological Sciences. The project investigates how different ubiquitin signals direct cellular outcomes, with a focus on polyubiquitin chains and cellular quality control. The researcher will develop a nanobody toolkit to recognise distinct polyubiquitin linkages and enable new experiments in ubiquitin biology. T...

University of Oxford is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Epitranscriptomics at the Target Discovery Institute, NDM Research Building, Old Road Campus, Headington, Oxford, United Kingdom. The project sits in Dr Chunxiao Song’s research group and focuses on DNA and RNA modifications , especially pseudouridine and pseudouridine synthases (PUS) , with applications in cancer , diagnostics, and therapeutics. The group develops technologies to map epigenetic and epitranscriptomic marks a...

PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, United Kingdom, focused on single-cell multi-omics , enhancer biology , and the developmental control of blood and cardiovascular fate . The project investigates how enhancer activity changes as blood, endothelial, and cardiac lineages emerge in the chick embryo. You will combine single-cell RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing to reconstruct gene-regulatory networks, identify candidate enhancers, and study how hematoendothelial progenit...

Fully funded PhD studentship at the University of Cambridge in parasite biology and structural cell biology. The project, in Aakash Mukhopadhyay’s lab, investigates how parasites remodel their flagella and adapt these conserved cellular machines to specialised lifestyles. The work compares flagellar systems across Leishmania , Trypanosoma , and Plasmodium to understand how parasite-specific molecular innovations shape flagellar function. This interdisciplinary PhD combines AI-assisted structural...
