Postdoctoral Research Scientist in Chromatin Dynamics

4 days ago


Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden Euraxess Full time

The Karolinska Institutet Department of Cell and Molecular Biology is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our research group led by Dr. Laura Baranello. Our team focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms defining the crosstalk between transcription, DNA topology, and chromatin folding.

We aim to design improved strategies for anti-cancer treatment. As a postdoc in our lab, you will play a leading role in a full-time research project funded by the European Research Council Consolidator Grant. Your mission will be to study the coordination of the topoisome and the transcriptional machinery during transcription.

This multidisciplinary project involves master biochemistry, master molecular biology, proteomics/genomics, and computational analysis. You will plan and execute experiments, analyze data, interpret, and present the results. You will also supervise students and write scientific articles, initially under partial supervision but with greater independence going forward.
