post-doc fellowship on R-loop helicases and chromatin structure Gene regulation

The Gene Regulation Laboratory at the Human Genetics Institute (IGH), Montpellier, is looking for a postdoctoral candidate to join the group. The position is for 1 year (renewable) to develop a project on the role of R-loop helicases in genome architecture and gene expression in humans.

Job Description

We are seeking an enthousiastic and motivated post-doc candidate with a strong background in biochemistry and/or molecular biology. Experience with ChIP-seq, Hi-C, and/or computational skills would be an advantage. The candidate will investigate the role of R-loop-associated factors on genome architecture and gene expression. Starting date is from January, 2024.

Qualifications

  • -  PhD in a relevant discipline

  • -  at least 1 first-author publication
