An open post-doctoral position in the laboratory of Dr. Alex de Mendoza
at Queen Mary University of London (United Kingdom). This is a European
Research Council funded position under the project METHYLEVOL, aimed
at understanding the evolution of DNA methylation in animals and other
eukaryotes. This position is for 2 years.

For this position previous experience in molecular biology and/or
bioinformatics is highly desirable. Alternatively, experience in
functional genomic techniques is also welcome (e.g. ATAC-seq, bisulfite
sequencing), virology or comparative genomics. Some bioinformatics
experience would be a plus, but we can train the candidates and offer
ample support on this aspect. Plenty of opportunities for gaining
expertise in functional genomics.

The goal is to understand the role of DNA methylation in various organisms
and its link to genome evolution, the project can be defined according to
candidate's experience and interests. See some of our latest work here:
