PhD position: Genetic control of epithelial morphogenesis in vertebratesRef: Dr. Juan Martinez-Morales
Ad published on 30/11/2011
Deadline: February 15th 2012.
We look for graduate students interested in initiating a scientific career in our research group: Genetic control of epithelial morphogenesis in vertebrates.
The general goal of the group is to understand the morphogenesis of complex organs at different levels of organization. We use the vertebrate eye as a model for epithelial folding during organ morphogenesis using zebrafish and medakafish as genetic models. The aim of the PhD project is to address how tissues interpret morphogenetic tension transcriptionally, and how this can in turn impinge back on organ self-assembly. We employ a genome-wide approach to identify and functionally study genes and cis-regulatory regions activated by tension.
Positions are open from March 2012 (date is negotiable). We offer an initial three months fellowship and the possibility of applying for internal and external funding.
Please send your CV (including academic record) using this link.
