PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia in the School of Biological Sciences on Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance of Responses to Environmental Stress . This project investigates how environmental stress responses may be transmitted across generations through non-genetic / epigenetic inheritance . Using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model system, the research will examine whether key cellular stress responses can be inherited, whether this improves survival and fitness under stress...

PhD opportunity at The Francis Crick Institute with Dr Ekaterina Osipova on genetic mechanisms of metabolic rate control in birds and mammals . This project focuses on how metabolic rate varies across animals and how genetic elements, genes, and regulatory regions shape those differences. The work combines comparative genomics , evolution , genomics , bioinformatics , molecular genetics , and potentially lab-based validation . The lab uses evolutionary rate-based methods and machine-learning app...

PhD opportunity in rapid evolution, genomics, and ecology at Moi Lab, University of California, Berkeley . This post points to a Google Doc titled 2027_PhD_RapidEvolutionGenomicsEcology-MoiLab_Berkeley-HHMI , indicating a doctoral opening connected to research in evolutionary genomics and ecological change. The opportunity appears to be based at Berkeley in the United States. Research areas: genomics, ecology, rapid evolution, evolutionary biology, and related biological research. Degree level: ...

PhD opportunity at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, United Kingdom: From brain to germline: how perception affects genetic inheritance (IMMLER_UEA_ARIES27). This competition-funded PhD project explores how perceived temperature changes, not only actual heat stress, can influence the germline and shape transgenerational inheritance in zebrafish. The project sits at the intersection of biology , neuroscience , environmental science , genomics , bioinformatics , reproductive biology , deve...
