Population genetic analysis based on the polymorphisms mediated by retrotransposons in the human genomes for cancer risk prediction (RDF25/HLS/APP/SHUKLA)
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide, and early detection is crucial for effective treatment. Despite various screening programs, many cancers are not caught early enough when curative treatments can be employed. Read more
China Scholarship Council: Discovery of novel mitochondrial and organelle biology underlying Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a movement disorder that is now the fastest growing neurological disorder in the world. Despite much research the disease is incurable and there are no treatments that can slow the disease down. Read more
GEMS Topic: Nanoparticle-Mediated siRNA Delivery Targeting Novel Molecular Pathways for Immune Modulation and Drug Sensitivity in Colon Cancer
This project will identify the genes regulating immune evasion in colon cancer. Using a nanoparticle delivery system, the siRNA targeting the specific gene will be delivered. Read more
Genetic and molecular underpinnings of obesity - using veterinary models for insight into human disease
Why are some individuals prone to obesity and yet others stay lean in an obesogenic environment? Obesity is highly heritable as are related metabolic traits. Read more
Using single-cell nanopore long-read sequencing to identify drivers of neurodegenerative disorders
Are you passionate about using cutting-edge computational approaches to tackle complex neurological disorders? Join our dynamic research team at Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Sydney as we embark on an exciting journey to understand Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) at unprecedented resolution. Read more
Targeting transposable elements in cancer
Transposable elements (TEs), also known as “jumping genes” are repetitive genomic elements that represent almost half of the human genome. Read more
Understanding the Genetic Mechanisms of Herbicide Tolerance in Plants
Project Overview. Herbicides are crucial for effective weed control in agriculture, enabling large-scale farming and boosting productivity. Read more
PhD in Quantitative Biology of Development and Aging
A PhD position in Quantitative Biology are available in the group of Prof. Benjamin Towbin at the Institute of Cell Biology (ICB), University of Bern (http://www.towbinlab.org). Read more
Development of new molecular therapies to treat motor neuron disease (MND)
The battle against Motor Neuron Disease (MND) is entering an exciting phase with the development of gene therapies aimed at reducing pathogenic proteins. Read more
Investigating Dietary Approaches to Improve Muscle Health
The maintenance of good muscles health provides a key aspect of general health. Reduced muscle health is associated with both ageing and a range of diseases. Read more
Fully funded PhD studentship in mechanisms of cancer heterogeneity and drug sensitivity
Treatment of cancer with drugs that cause DNA damage often leads to development of the drug tolerance. Recently, we uncovered a novel mechanism of such an adaptation that associates with active generation of hundreds of thousand mutations in chromosomes that prevent drug-triggered DNA damage.

Development of formaldehyde-free biobased adhesives based on by-product proteins
The wood-based composite panel industry is an evolving sector that is constantly seeking to adapt to consumer needs and regulations on volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. Read more
