Postdoctoral Researcher in Molecular Biology and Microbiology CNRS in France

Funded PhD position in Molecular Microbiology at CNRS / Université Lyon 1 in Lyon, France . The SAB Team at MMSB is recruiting a PhD candidate to study how bacteria switch between growing and non-growing states, with a focus on pathogenesis, stress survival, and the CtrA pathway . The project uses Caulobacter crescentus as a model system and will involve characterization of candidate genes identified in Tn-seq screens. Research methods include CRISPRi , mutant construction, Western blots, protei...

Rutgers University is advertising a Postdoctoral Associate position in the Semenova Lab at the Waksman Institute of Microbiology . The project focuses on CRISPR-Cas13-mediated immunity , with research on collateral RNA cleavage, RNA substrate preferences, activation mechanisms, tRNA-linked defense pathways, spacer acquisition in RNA-targeting type VI CRISPR-Cas systems, and the evolutionary diversity of Cas13 effectors. This is a strong fit for candidates interested in microbiology , genetics , ...

The EVOGEN team at the Institut de Biologie Intégrative de la Cellule (I2BC) is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to study how an heterochromatin protein functions during Drosophila spermatogenesis. The project focuses on the Paris sex-ratio (SR) system in Drosophila simulans , a natural meiotic drive context that biases offspring sex ratio through abnormal segregation of sex chromosomes. The successful candidate will investigate HP1D2 , a heterochromatin protein linked to the Y chromosome an...

This postdoctoral position is based in Scarlet Shell’s lab in the Department of Biology & Biotechnology at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI). The project centers on how Mycobacterium tuberculosis manages the relationship between RNA metabolism and mutation tolerance, with a particular focus on the ways this pathogen mitigates fitness costs caused by mutations selected during antibiotic exposure and other infection-related stressors. The successful fellow will contribute to a research program...

This postdoctoral project focuses on the control of bacterial gene expression and the regulatory networks that shape how bacteria adapt to their environment. The work centers on Escherichia coli , with particular attention to both transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation. The project will investigate regulatory mechanisms mediated by two-component systems and small regulatory RNAs . The recruited researcher will contribute to detailed analyses of selected model genes as well as broade...
