The Laboratory for Genomics of Long Noncoding RNA and Disease (GOLD Lab) is recruiting three postdoctoral researchers for a new ERC-funded programme applying directed evolution for the first time to long noncoding RNAs. The goal is to develop a deeper understanding of their molecular mechanisms and to engineer RNAs as a new class of therapeutic for liver disease.
You will lead your own research area within a diverse, well-resourced team, and develop expertise at the intersection of RNA, evolution, genome editing and translational medicine. The project benefits from a team of world leading international collaborators.
We are looking for ambitious, independent researchers with a PhD and strong track record in one or more of:
Start: March 2027 or soon after.
Location: University College Dublin, Ireland.
More about us: We at GOLD Lab love to study lncRNAs and exploit them for medicine. We employ an interdisciplinary wet/dry approach and develop new methods based on genome-editing. We work closely with leading international consortia and collaborators. Our core values are love of science, respect for each other, team work and rigorous thinking. See our website at https://gold-lab.org
To apply: Send a brief email outlining your relevant experience and motivation, telling us where you saw our advert, with attached CV, to [email protected] with subject line "REVOLVER PD". Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until positions are filled (check our website).
