About this position

Postdoc opportunity in transcriptional repression, chromatin organization, and functional genomics at the International Institute of Molecular Mechanisms and Machines, Polish Academy of Sciences (IMol PAS), Warsaw, Poland.

The newly established Goradia Lab is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the SONATA Bis 15 project funded by the National Science Centre (NCN), Poland. The project investigates how higher-order protein assemblies regulate transcriptional repression and chromatin organization in mammalian cells, with a focus on the molecular mechanism of CtBP corepressor inactivation by RAI2-induced CtBP polymerization.

The work combines mammalian cell biology, CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering, molecular biology, protein biochemistry, quantitative fluorescence imaging, proteomics, and functional genomics. The postdoc will help establish and optimize chromatin profiling and genome-wide workflows such as ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, or related methods, and will contribute to experimental design, sample preparation, quality control, and biological interpretation of multi-omics datasets.

Applicants should hold a PhD in a relevant life science field and have strong experience in mammalian cell biology, molecular biology, protein interaction studies, and at least one of chromatin biology, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, or functional genomics. A strong publication record, excellent English, and strong analytical and teamwork skills are expected. Experience with chromatin profiling, quantitative microscopy, proteomics, or cancer biology is desirable.

The position offers a full-time contract for the project duration, a competitive NCN salary of about 9500 gross/month, medical and social benefits, and 36 days of paid holiday per year. The expected start date is 1 December 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.

To apply, submit the required documents via the Google Form link: cover letter, CV, complete publication list, and contact details for at least two academic referees. Deadline: 30 November 2026, 23:59 (Europe/Warsaw).

Funding details

Full-time employment contract for the duration of the SONATA Bis project. Competitive salary in accordance with National Science Centre (NCN) regulations, approximately 9500 gross/month. Medical package and social benefits including sports card, holiday bonus, and 36 days of paid holiday per year.

What's required

PhD or equivalent in molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, cancer biology, genomics, or a related life science discipline. Strong publication record relative to career stage. Demonstrated expertise in mammalian cell biology and molecular biology. Experience with CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering or related genome editing approaches, protein biochemistry and protein interaction studies, and at least one of chromatin biology, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, or functional genomics. Experience establishing or optimizing molecular or genome-wide workflows. Strong analytical, problem-solving, organizational, communication, teamwork, and excellent written and spoken English skills. Desirable: ATAC-seq, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN, CUT&Tag, multi-omics analysis, quantitative fluorescence microscopy/live-cell imaging, protein complex purification, transcriptional regulation, chromatin biology, intrinsically disordered proteins, biomolecular condensates, cancer biology, and mentoring students.

How to apply

Apply by filling in the Google Form linked in the post. Prepare a cover letter, CV, complete publication list, and contact details for at least two academic referees. Submit the application through the form as soon as possible before the deadline.
