PhD candidate – Embryonic Cell Bioimaging Lab
The Embryonic Cell Bioimaging Lab at the Molecular Biology Institute of Barcelona-CSIC is seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our team.
Our research uses quantitative live imaging to investigate dynamic biological processes across scales in zebrafish and human embryos. We are particularly interested in the interplay between development, tissue biology, and immunity during early embryogenesis.
