We are looking for a motivated collaborator for the position of PhD student in the Laboratory of Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine in the OPUS (National Science Centre, NCN) project. The successful candidate will study changes in pancreatic organoids derived from patients with type 2 diabetes using multi-omics techniques.
The research will be carried out using state-of-the-art research techniques, such as differentiation of human stem cells into pancreatic beta cells and the production of organoids, advanced genome editing techniques during differentiation, RNA sequencing at the single-cell level, proteomics and lipidomics, functional assays and microscopic imaging. It is not necessary to master all these techniques, as this project will be carried out in cooperation, but it is possible to follow them more closely. The knowledge gained will be crucial for the development of cellular and gene therapy for people with diabetes.
The laboratory is located in Poznań, at the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, Faculty of Biology of the Adam Mickiewicz University, which is one of the leading scientific institutions in Poland. This project will be carried out in close cooperation with Prof. Małgorzata Borowiak's team at Adam Mickiewicz University and two teams at the University of Helsinki with the possibility of short-term internships. Our team is a young, dynamic, efficient team focused on cooperation, development and mutual respect.
