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

The Zenk Lab at EPFL’s NeuroNA Chair in Epigenomics of Neurodevelopmental Disorders (EpiGN) is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for an interdisciplinary project at the intersection of single-cell genomics, machine learning, and developmental biology. The position focuses on integrating and analysing multi-modal single-cell datasets, including scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, scCUT&Tag, Hi-C, and proteomics, to study trajectory inference, regulatory dynamics, and cell fate decisions. A central aim is to u...

A postdoctoral research associate position is available at the Center for Craniofacial Molecular Biology at the University of Southern California . The role is embedded in an NIH-funded laboratory and offers the opportunity to work with a diverse team of researchers and physicians in a highly collaborative biomedical environment. The project focuses on craniofacial biology , tissue regeneration , and cellular metabolism . The selected scholar will join Dr. Michael Paine’s research projects as ke...

A full-time research position is available in the Baugh lab in the Department of Biology at Duke University . The lab studies how nutrition shapes development and organismal physiology using the roundworm C. elegans as a model system. The Research Associate will join an active research team working on projects that examine the adult consequences of early life starvation and the nutritional control of gene expression. The role is research-intensive and sits within a lab environment focused on exp...

The Sparks Laboratory at the University of California, Irvine is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to study the molecular and epigenetic mechanisms that guide early human pluripotent stem cell differentiation. The project centers on neural crest and mesoderm lineage specification and aims to define the intermediate cell states and regulatory mechanisms that shape these early developmental decisions. The scholar will work with human embryonic stem cells and pluripotent stem cell differentiation syst...

Postdoctoral Scholar positions are available throughout the year in the Department of Developmental and Cell Biology at the University of California, Irvine. The positions are sponsored by faculty members in Developmental and Cell Biology within the Charlie Dunlop School of Biological Sciences. The role is part of a broad postdoctoral research environment rather than a single named project, giving selected scholars the opportunity to contribute to ongoing research across developmental and cellul...

The Dresden International Graduate School for Interdisciplinary Life Sciences (DIGS-ILS) at Dresden University of Technology is a doctoral programme for research in the life sciences within a collaborative and international environment in Dresden. The programme is run in cooperation with the International Max Planck Research School for Cell, Developmental and Systems Biology (IMPRS-CellDevoSys) under the umbrella of the Dresden International PhD Programme (DIPP) . Students work across a broad se...

NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology) is advertising a PhD Candidate position in Zebrafish Neuroscience in Norway. The project sits at the intersection of neuroscience and biological research, with zebrafish as the model organism for studying nervous system function and related mechanisms. This opening is suitable for applicants interested in experimental neuroscience, model organisms, and life-science research in an academic environment. The posting provided here does not includ...

The Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology in Plön is offering six fully funded doctoral positions in the International Max Planck Research School for Evolutionary Biology (IMPRS EvolBio). This is an internationally oriented research environment focused on the principles, mechanisms, and effects of evolutionary change. The program is a joint initiative between the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology, Christian Albrechts University in Kiel, and the GEOMAR Helmholtz Center for Oce...

The Cañestro Lab at the University of Barcelona is hiring for a newly granted 2026–2030 project in evolutionary developmental biology (EvoDevo) and genomics. The project offers a 4-year PhD contract. Postdoctoral researchers are also welcome to express interest. Research themes associated with the lab include gene loss, chordate and tunicate biology, Oikopleura, heart development, and ocean health. Applicants should review the project and joining information on the lab website for details about ...
