Job Description
Early Stage Researcher and Experienced Researcher Positions
- InteGeR Marie Curie Initial Training Network , Various locations
Description: Several 3-year Early Stage Researcher (predoctoral) and 2-year Experienced Researcher (postdoctoral) fellowships are available with the InteGeR Marie Curie Initial Training Network (ITN).
The InteGeR (Integrated Gene Regulation) ITN consists of 10 partners located in 5 European countries. The main aim of the InteGeR ITN is to provide high level training by using state-of-the-art genomic, proteomic and imaging approaches in investigating gene regulation, from trans-acting factors through to nuclear structure, in cellular differentiation. Specific research directions of the InteGeR ITN are as follows:
- Transcription factor function as master regulators of differentiation
- Chromatin structure and epigenetic modifications in cellular memory
- Spatial nuclear organisation of gene interactions and gene activity
