Department
The research conducted at the Research Division of Genome Biology (located at SciLifeLab and as part of the Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics) explores various aspects of genome metabolism, and how their perturbation can lead to disease. Besides our basic research activities, we also focus on phenotypic screens aiming at finding genes or chemicals that can be of help in fighting against age-related diseases currently lacking a cure.
We are currently looking for an ambitious, highly motivated project leader with a solid background in cell, molecular biology, biochemistry and high-throughput screening, to join the research group of Prof. Oscar Fernandez-Capetillo.
