PhD Opportunities in Single Cell Analysis in Japan

This PhD fellowship at the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences , University of Copenhagen, sits at the intersection of plant stress physiology , single-cell biology , and comparative crop genomics . The project asks how heat and drought reshape gene regulation in individual cell types rather than in whole organs, where opposing responses can be hidden by averaging. You will work on four major Nordic crops: rapeseed , potato , wheat , and barley . The experimental work is designed to r...

This PhD project at UCLouvain in Brussels, Belgium, focuses on the intracellular persistence of Staphylococcus aureus in the context of chronic bone and joint infections. The work is embedded in a large international consortium coordinated by the University of Reims and funded through a European collaborative program. The doctoral researcher will investigate how clinical S. aureus isolates survive within host cells and contribute to the chronic and relapsing nature of prosthetic joint infections...

Karolinska Institutet is offering a four-year doctoral project in the Baryawno laboratory at BioClinicum in Stockholm, affiliated with the Division of Pediatric Oncology and Pediatric Surgery in the Department of Women’s and Children’s Health. The project, “Decoding the metastatic cascade to bone,” addresses high-risk neuroblastoma, an embryonal tumour in which bone marrow metastases are common and relapse in bone is frequently fatal. The research will investigate which tumour clones seed bone, ...

The University of Skövde is advertising a doctoral position in bioinformatics focused on AI-based data analysis for precision medicine . The student will join the Translational Bioinformatics research group, which develops methods and tools for large-scale data analysis in the life sciences. The project centers on building new approaches for precision medicine, with a particular emphasis on bioinformatic analysis of large-scale omics data . The research combines experimental work with advanced c...

The Center for Translational Neuromedicine at the University of Copenhagen is offering a PhD fellowship in cerebral interoception within the Kaag Rasmussen lab, part of the Division of Pain Volume Transmission. The center is an interdisciplinary research environment with multiple labs, international collaborators, modern laboratories, and state-of-the-art equipment, and it focuses on new approaches for examining and treating neurological diseases using physiology, imaging, cell therapy, and gene...

The University of Copenhagen is offering a three-year PhD fellowship in cerebral interoception at the Center for Translational Neuromedicine. The project is based in the Kaag Rasmussen lab within the Division of Pain Volume Transmission and explores how sensory information from the meninges contributes to headache and pain. The PhD researcher will characterize the functional and molecular properties of sensory neurons projecting to the dura mater and pia mater. The project will identify which ne...

Heidelberg University’s Munschauer Lab at the Centre for Integrative Infectious Disease Research is seeking a doctoral researcher in RNA biology. The project forms part of the DFG Collaborative Research Centre CRC/TRR 440 smART and explores how RNA interactions can be harnessed to improve therapeutic messenger RNA. The PhD researcher will dissect and characterize cellular RNA-protein interactions with high spatial and temporal resolution. The work includes recombinant production and purification...

Karolinska Institutet is recruiting a doctoral student to the Center for Immuno-Oncology at the Department of Microbiology, Tumor and Cell Biology. The project focuses on the natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxic operating system: the interconnected intracellular programs that regulate NK-cell maturation, tumor killing, persistence, and resistance to tumor-associated stress. The Malmberg research group studies human NK-cell biology and develops next-generation NK-cell-based immunotherapies. The doc...
