PRE-DOCTORAL POSITIONS

Motivated graduate students having finished their university studies with a high academic mark (2 or higher in the Spanish system), and wishing to carry out a doctoral thesis with us, are welcomed.

PhD Project would be related to the expression of key genes in insect oogenesis. The student would work with classical molecular biology techniques: Real-time PCR expression studies, immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridization, interference by RNAi, as well as with bioinformatic tools to manage microRNA libraries and transcriptomes

Please contact by sending a message to: mdolors.piulachs (see domain below), explaining the reasons (why, when), and accompanying a brief CV, including the academic marks.

 

 

 

POST-DOCTORAL POSITIONS

Post-doctoral researches interested in the control of oogenesis in basal insects with panoistic ovaries are welcomed. The research project would be related to the identification of key genes necessary for the correct oocyte development in a panoistic ovary. We aim at describing the expression of these genes and at defining their function in maturing oocytes. The ultimate idea is to compare the results obtained in a panoistic ovary with those described in meroistic models and to try affording new light to understand the transition from panoistic to meroistic types of ovary.
