Scholarship Description:
The lab uses mouse hematopoietic stem cells as a system to investigate fundamental mechanisms, particularly extrinsic mechanisms, that regulate stem cell self-renewal and how these mechanisms contribute to disease (see related work: Nature, 2012, 481:457-62; Nature, 2013, 495:231-5; Nature Cell Biology, 2017, 19:677; Science, 2018, 360:106; Nature Cell Biology, 2019, 21:700; Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2021, 218: e20200882; Science Advances, 2022, 8:eabm7688; Cell Stem Cell, 2023, 30:832). Specific projects will be discussed and tailored to the candidate’s background and interests. We emphasise scientific training and career development and aim to provide a stimulating environment for trainees.
Available Subjects:
- Stem Cell
Eligibility criteria:
- Laboratory experience in mouse genetics, developmental biology, stem cell biology, immunology, molecular biology and bioinformatics is desirable but not required. The ability to communicate with other members of the laboratory and to work both as a team member and independently is a must. Competitive candidates should be highly self-motivated individuals with a good publication record.
Application Procedure:
- Interested candidates should send a CV, a brief description of research experience and interests, and a list of three references to [email protected].
