Bernd Schnabl, from the Division of Gastroenterology, School of Medicine, University of California San Diego (UCSD), and Director of the San Diego Digestive Diseases Research Center (SDDRC), is currently seeking a postdoc interested in liver disease research using in vitro technologies to study various liver cell types and mouse models. Use the translational aspect to […]
Work on advancing targeted transposon gene therapies with a startup called Komo Biosciences, which works on real-world solutions for cell line manufacturing and clinical cures. The position is to be held at CUH Non-Civil Service position with the John A. Burns School of Medicine, Institute for Biogenesis Research, located in Honolulu, Hawai‘i. Skilled in protein […]
Antisense technologies can yield a new generation of antimicrobials. Such antimicrobials, after entering the bacterial cell, produce short antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs). These ASOs can directly modulate bacterial gene expression by suppressing mRNA translation of an essential target protein. This programmable nature of ASOs allows specific drug designing. These drugs are capable of killing emerging pathogens, […]
Post-doc position available in the Institute of Physical Chemistry PAS within the National Science Center (NSC), OPUS 23, Project no. 2022/45/B/ST5/01500, entitled “Antiviral nanoparticles and polymers to selectively fight phage infections without harming bacteria and eukaryotic cells”. Under the Leadershp of Dr Hab. Jan Paczesny. Phage infections are one of the most important in biotechnology […]
A new class of regulatory switches (C-switches) was discovered that uses the pyrimidine nucleotide CTP as a cofactor. C-switches are widespread in bacteria, archaea, and bacteriophages and play critical roles in bacterial growth and pathogenicity. However only a few are studied so far. Work on ERC Advanced Grant “C-SWITCH” using in vitro, in vivo and in silico methods, and […]
The Jenal Lab at the Biozentrum of the University of Basel is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow with expertise in molecular biology, microscopy, and/or phage biology to join their team. This position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research at the interface of bacterial signal transduction and phage biology. The research group […]
The D’Amato Lab of the Vascular Biology Program at Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School is seeking a highly motivated post-doctoral researcher to join a team which is actively developing drugs for the treatment of cancer, vascular anomalies, macular degeneration and glaucoma. The group is dedicated to identifying novel targets, pursuing high throughput screening […]
Phages are important sources of biotechnological tools and can be used to combat bacterial infections. Phages have the potential to help overcome the ongoing crisis of multidrug-resistant bacterial pathogens. Research in the Hör lab focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of phages with RNA genomes during infection, host takeover, and anti-phage defense. Bacteria use defense […]
