PhD, Master’s & Postdoc Opportunities in Biology in Poland

This postdoctoral project is based in the Virus Molecular Biology group at the Intercollegiate Faculty of Biotechnology, University of Gdańsk. The research focuses on a newly observed, glioblastoma-specific localization pattern of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) IE1 protein and its relationship to viral chromosome binding in glioblastoma cells. The successful candidate will join a project that aims to uncover the mechanism behind this unusual nuclear localization pattern and to identify the domain ...

The Innate Immunity Research Group at Łukasiewicz PORT is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the NCN OPUS 30 project “Investigating the role of ILC2s in regulating blood vessels in melanoma” , led by Dr. hab. Marek Wagner . This interdisciplinary project explores how group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) may regulate the tumour vasculature and influence melanoma progression and antitumour immunity. The team will investigate communication between ILC2s and vascular endothelial cells, with a...

This postdoctoral position is in the Department of Structural Chemistry and Biology of Nucleic Acids at the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences in Poznań. The project is led by Prof. Ryszard Kierzek and focuses on how RNA modifications alter RNA structure and function, with special attention to natural RNAs and in vitro transcribed vaccine mRNAs. The research is centred on modified nucleotides that are highly relevant in RNA biology and RNA therapeutics, including pseud...

The Multiscale Modelling of Complex Systems group, known as PomaLab, at the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research, Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw is recruiting for a postdoctoral researcher / assistant professor to work on the NCN OPUS 29 project Large scale modeling of conformational changes in nucleic acids . The project is led by Dr. Adolfo Poma and focuses on how DNA and RNA change shape across the large length and time scales that are difficult to access with all-atom simula...

This postdoctoral opening is part of the MIST project at the Department of Inorganic and Analytical Chemistry , Faculty of Pharmacy, at Poznan University of Medical Sciences .

The successful candidate will jo...

The postdoctoral project is hosted by the Ophthalmic Biology Group at the International Centre for Translational Eye Research (ICTER) , within the Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw. The research is part of the National Science Centre SONATA BIS 9 project “A new approach of vision restoration based on modified Rabies virus tracing technique” led by Andrzej Foik . The work combines translational eye research with molecular and cellular neuroscience to address re...

This position is part of an ERC Advanced Grant project at the Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science of Jagiellonian University in Kraków. The project develops a novel non-invasive approach to assessing tissue hypoxia by combining positronium imaging with the quantum entanglement of photons. The research investigates whether properties of positronium atoms formed during positron emission tomography can act as biomarkers of tissue oxygenation. A central theme is the study of p...

This postdoctoral position is based at the August Chełkowski Institute of Physics , Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Silesia in Katowice , and is part of the NCN OPUS 29 project “The One Ring to Rule Them All – How Does Heme Affect Embryonic Development?” led by Prof. Witold Nowak . The role is framed as an assistant professor position in the research staff group and offers one opening in a full-time, fixed-term appointment. The successful researcher will contribute to interdisci...

The Jerzy Haber Institute of Catalysis and Surface Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Krakow is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the Soft Matter Nanostructures group to work on the OPUS 30 project “Nanoengineered multilayer polyelectrolyte coatings for targeted and programmable local delivery of therapeutics” . The project sits at the interface of microbiology, biotechnology, biomaterials, and nanomaterials. The successful candidate will investigate how functional surface coa...
