United Kingdom

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...

United Kingdom

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...

About this position

The Swedish National Genomics Infrastructure at KTH Royal Institute of Technology is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for a genomics project focused on the links between gene regulatory variants, chromatin organization, and transcription.

The position sits at the interface of the National Genomics Infrastructure and the research groups of Professor Tuuli Lappalainen and Associate Professor Robert Månsson. The research environment brings together state-of-the-art genomics platforms, internationally leading expertise in functional genomics, molecular biology, and experimental hematology.

The project combines hands-on genomics, technology development, and computational biology. It is particularly well suited to candidates with experience in genomics, molecular or cell biology, genetics, and large-scale genomics data analysis.

This is a full-time temporary postdoctoral appointment for up to three years at KTH in Stockholm, Sweden. The role is intended as a first career step after a dissertation and is described as a time-limited qualified appointment focusing mainly on research.

Eligibility requires a doctoral degree or equivalent foreign degree by the time the employment decision is made. Preferred qualifications include a PhD obtained within the last three years, teaching ability, and awareness of diversity and equal opportunity issues, especially gender equality. Strong collaboration, independence, and scientific communication skills are highlighted as important.

Applicants must apply via KTH's recruitment system. The application should include a CV with relevant professional experience and knowledge, as well as a brief statement describing research motivation, academic interests, and how these relate to previous studies and future goals. The deadline for complete applications is 2026-08-20 at 23:59 Stockholm time.

What's required

A doctoral degree or an equivalent foreign degree is required and must be completed no later than the time the employment decision is made. Applicants should have research expertise in genomics, molecular biology, cell biology, genetics or an equivalent field, prior experience with genomics or molecular/cell biology laboratory techniques, the ability to analyze large-scale genomics data, collaborative abilities, independence, a strong publication record, and strong oral and written communication skills. Preferred qualifications include having obtained the doctoral degree within the last three years prior to the application deadline, teaching abilities, and awareness of diversity and equal opportunity issues with a focus on gender equality. Personal skills are emphasized.
