The Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) is seeking new PhD student to join the Genetic Systems Lab to take on one of these exciting projects involving deep mutagenesis. The ideal candidate will be passionate about biology, motivated, organized and hard working with a ‘can do’ attitude.
About the lab:
- The Genetic Systems lab which is part of the CRG Systems Biology program, has recently demonstrated that it is possible to determine the 3D structures of proteins by quantifying the effects of a very large number of mutations in parallel using selection and sequencing.
- This genetic approach to structure determination relies on the quantification of unexpected interactions (genetic interactions or epistasis) between mutations and provides a new experimental strategy for structure determination, with the exciting potential to reveal the in vivo structures of molecules (Schmiedel + Lehner, Nature Genetics.
Requirements:
- Applicant must hold a University Degree and a Master’s Degree in a field of Life Sciences, Engineering and/or Physics within the European Higher Education System (minimum 300 ECTS)
- Applicant must have substantial research experience in both molecular and computational biology.
- Applicant must be fluent in English
Duration: 4 year PhD Position
