We currently have several positions open at different levels! The project is part of an interdisciplinary, collaborative and international project involving groups in Imperial College London, the Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI) Amsterdam, the University of Oxford, and the University of Leicester.
This project focuses on understanding molecular mechanisms that control the regulation of 3D genome organisation. The 3D genome organisation refers to the spatial arrangement of chromatin within the nucleus, including the positioning of chromosomes, formation of chromatin loops, and interactions between regulatory elements such as promoters and enhancers. The dysregulation of 3D genome organisation has been increasingly recognised as a significant factor in cancer development and progression. We aim to understand the molecular mechanisms that enable control of 3D genome organisation. Understanding these control mechanisms will be essential for identifying novel therapeutic strategies.
You will play a pivotal role in conducting experiments, analysing data, and interpreting results. You will engage in interdisciplinary research that combines structural biology, molecular biology, genomics, and bioinformatics to gain a holistic understanding of molecular mechanisms that enable control of 3D genome organisation.
