Closing Date: 15 March 2021
A PhD position is available in the group “Cnidarian Neural Development” (Fabian Rentzsch) at the University of Bergen/Sars Centre in Bergen, Norway.The group uses the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis to study molecular, cellular and evolutionary aspects of nervous system development (e.g. Richards and Rentzsch, Development 2014, 2015; Busengdal and Rentzsch, Dev Biol 2017).
This PhD project addresses the development and function of sensory cells in Nematostella. Key experimental tools are CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing, shRNAs, transgenic reporter lines and confocal microscopy.
