PhD studentship in Cardiff – Intestinal stem cells in Drosophila

I am looking for talented and driven candidates to apply for a position in a 4yr-PhD programme and join my laboratory at the European Cancer Stem Cell Research Institute (Cardiff University). The studentship is funded by the South-West Doctoral Training Partnership of the BBSRC and starts September 2017.

The project aims at understanding how adult stem cells respond to the local needs for cell replacement through lineage tracing, genetic manipulation, confocal microscopy, mathematical modelling and the development of a new method for the temporal control of transgene expression in Drosophila. This will be done in collaboration with Prof Helen White-Cooper’s lab in Cardiff and with Dr Edward Morrissey in Oxford.

For more details of the project see here.

Please send further questions and/or informal enquiries to Dr Joaquín de Navascués at deNavascuesJ@cardiff.ac.uk.

For details of the programme, including eligibility and expected grades of the candidates, visit the DTP website at http://www.bristol.ac.uk/swbio/
