PREDOCTORAL POSITION IN NEURO-EPIGENETICS IBMB-CSIC BARCELONA

PREDOCTORAL POSITION IN NEURO-EPIGENETICS

A predoctoral position is available to work on epigenetics and neurogenesis Marian Martinez-Balbás' lab

Molecular Biology Institute of Barcelona (IBMB) Spanish Research Council (CSIC)

Barcelona Science Park (PCB)

In our lab, we focus on identifying the molecular mechanisms that control stem cell differentiation toward specific neural lieages. We aim to decipher transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms that regulate neural cell fates and how they are altered in neural diseases, particularly in intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. Our main models are neural stem cells and the neural tube. The candidate will implement a wide-range of techniques to obtain a comprehensive genome wide and local transcriptomic and epigenomic information; from conventional Western-blot and qPCR to next generation sequencing and animal models.

We are seeking for enthusiastic, self-motivated and with very good academic records candidates to apply to FPU and FI fellowships to join our lab.

To apply, please send a detalled CV, as well as a motivation letter to:
