Suyang Zhang’s team at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (MRC-LMB) is recruiting a PhD student and a postdoctoral researcher to investigate co-transcriptional splicing , also described as transcription-coupled splicing. The research examines how splicing is coordinated with transcription and gene regulation. The projects will use cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and biochemistry to study the molecular structures and mechanisms underlying co-transcriptional splicing. The positions are bas...

[4-year PhD studentship with annual stipend at the UKRI minimum rate (currently £21,805 per year) plus £1,000 per year enhancement, and a research training support grant of up to £20,000 for the full 4-year programme.] This PhD studentship at The University of Manchester investigates how microbes sense and respond to anthropogenic molecules released from discarded plastics. The project is framed around a major environmental and biological question: whether microbial communities can detect small-...

The Spemann Graduate School of Biology and Medicine (SGBM) at the University of Freiburg is an international doctoral school offering a multidisciplinary research and training environment in the life sciences and biomedicine. Doctoral fellows work toward a PhD at the University of Freiburg, and medical doctors can also join an MD/PhD pathway. The programme is embedded in a strong research network that includes outstanding research facilities and major partner institutions and clusters such as th...

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...
