PhD Scholarship in studying the molecular mechanisms involved in the neural development of the inner ear, University of Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona
Job Description: We are seeking highly motivated students with a brilliant academic record to apply for Spanish Ph.D fellowships.Our laboratory is studying the molecular mechanisms involved in the neural development of the inner ear.The inner ear is one of the most sophisticated sensory organs of the head and is responsible for our communication with the world through the senses of hearing and balance. During the development of the inner ear, many genes are activated in a very precise spatiotemporal manner to coordinate cell fate, morphogenesis and patterning. In our laboratory we have begun to decipher some of the main genetic regulatory interactions between transcription factors and signaling pathways that are necessary for neural patterning of the inner ear. The aim of the project is to further dissect the integration of FGF, RA and Notch signaling inputs in proneural function and the cross-interaction of neurogenic with nonneurogenic genes. Experiments will use cellullar, molecular biology, imaging and genomic techniques, and will take advantage of chick and zebrafish model organisms for functional experiments.
The PRBB (www.prbb.org) is a big research infrastructure with more than 1300 scientists, including 30% of foreign researchers. Recently, in EMBO reports, the PRBB was put forward as one of the five excellence centers in Spain that can attract researchers from over the world.
Potential applicants please send a CV and transcripts of Bachelor degree before the 30th of August to berta.alsina@upf.edu
