Mirko Pegoraro

A new PhD opportunity will soon be available at Liverpool John Moores University, supervised by Mirko Pegoraro (Lecturer in Epigenetics), Satu Valoriani, and Rui Leite Portema Martiniano. The project is titled “A precise method for age determination of forensic human remains by means of DNA methylation and epigenetic analysis.” This research will focus on developing advanced techniques for determining the age of human remains using cutting-edge molecular biology methods, including DNA methylation profiling and epigenetic markers. The project is ideal for candidates interested in forensic science, genetics, and molecular biology. While specific eligibility criteria and funding details are not yet announced, applicants are typically expected to have a strong background in biology, forensic science, or related fields. The application process and deadline will be announced soon. Interested candidates should keep an eye on Liverpool John Moores University's official channels or contact the supervisors for updates.
