**Job Details**:

- ERC-funded PhD position in molecular genetics: Unravelling the eukaryotic post-transcriptional regulatory code Job description Are you interested in unraveling a central, yet understudied mechanism in eukaryotic cells? Join our multidisciplinary and international team to perform ground-breaking research aimed at understanding how cells control gene activity and protein expression.
- We are looking for a highly motivated and talented PhD student with an MSc degree in biological engineering, molecular biology, genetics and/or microbiology (or equivalent). You will join a young and motivated international team of scientists working on regulatory genomics, within the framework of the European Research Council (ERC)-funded Synergy Grant EPIC. This exciting project aims to understand how cells control gene activity and protein expression, which is crucial to understanding how cells function.
- You will study transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation leveraging the unparalleled molecular toolbox of the eukaryotic model system _Saccharomyces cerevisiae_ and other eukaryotic fungal species. You will perform innovative assays to probe the cells across all layers of gene regulation (i.e. chromatin, DNA, RNA and protein level) under different environmental conditions.-
- The lab is located at KU Leuven, one of the oldest and most prominent universities in Europe, consistently ranked within the top 50 worldwide universities. Leuven is located 10 miles from Brussels, with frequent direct train connections to Brussels airport.
- Profile
- **Essential**
- You have a keen interest and at least basic laboratory experience in molecular biology and microbiology
- You are fluent in English, for both written and oral communication
- You are an enthused team player who is open and respectful to other cultures, opinions and ways of life
- You are accurate and critical of your work and its implementation
- You are expected to write a doctoral thesis after 4 years

**Desirable but not required**
- Experience with yeast molecular biology (PCR, transformation, large-scale assays)
- Knowledge of statistics packages and/or data analysis using R

**Key personal characteristics**
- You love working in a multicultural, international and multidisciplinary team and enjoy diversity

We offer
- A fully-funded, full-time position as PhD student (4 years) in a stimulating and supportive international research environment, with English as the main language
- The possibility to participate in international conferences and collaborations.
- The ability to work on scientifically exceptional and high-impact research topics
- Access to state-of-the-art tools and research infrastructure
- Excellent training in academic, technical and career skills.
- Preferred starting date is July 1st, 2024, but if needed, the starting date can be delayed by a few months
- your cover/motivation letter stating career goals, experience, and how these relate to the current position
