PhD opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences with Dr Elizabeth Radford. This project focuses on genetic conditions , splice variants , deep intronic variants , and the diagnosis of rare monogenic and neurodevelopmental disorders. The research aims to improve how clinicians interpret non-coding variation in whole-genome sequencing data, especially variants that alter splicing and remain difficult to predict with current methods. Students will work on ...

The Babraham Institute is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Scientist to study the role of extracellular proteostasis in healthy ageing and host defence against pathogens. The project addresses mechanisms that maintain protein quality outside cells and prevent protein aggregation, a process associated with age-related functional decline and diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. The successful researcher will join the David group within the Institute’s Signalling Programme, a collaborative resea...

The University of East Anglia’s School of Biological Sciences is offering a funded, full-time PhD studentship in Norwich, United Kingdom, focused on alternative splicing regulation by small nuclear RNA (snRNA) modifications . Based in Dr Alper Akay’s RNA (epi)genetics laboratory, the project will investigate how spliceosomal snRNA modifications regulate RNA splicing and gene-specific splice-site choice. Research will use the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and human cells to examine effects on t...
