PhD in biochemistry

PhD fellowship in intrinsically disordered transcription factors and their interactions with chromatin. The project is part of a research project financed by a Lundbeck Ascending Investigator Grant./nThe project focuses on a pioneer transcription factor that drives neuronal cell fate with the ultimate aim of providing new tools for efficient neuronal cell reprogramming./nMethods and techniques explicitly mentioned: single-molecule techniques (single-molecule FRET, optical tweezers), cell biology experiments to study genome engagement in live cells./nThe successful candidate will join the Heidarsson group, Structural Biology and NMR Laboratory, Department of Biology, Faculty of SCIENCE, University of Copenhagen, located in Copenhagen./nThe project includes an exchange stay for 3-6 months at the Zaret Laboratory, Penn Institute for Regenerative Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, USA.
