"El mejor estado vital del ser humano es el de investigador postdoctoral"
Postdoctoral Research Associate. University of Oxford. Así se planteaba en sinc: La ciencia es noticia, en el marco de entrevistas a personal especializado de distinto recorrido en las universidades. La verdad es que están a la orden del día este tipo de ofertas. Habitualmente prima en ellas un nivel de exigencia considerable. Pero si se da en la clave, se trata de un trabajo vocacional tremendamente enriquecedor.

En la UPF ha sido primero investigador «Ramón y Cajal» y luego «ICREA». Este lector compulsivo, incluso de etiquetas de botellas, nos cuenta su historia.

Job Details
Postdoctoral Research Associate in Genetic CRISPR/Cas9 Screens of the Polycomb System
Department of Biochemistry, South Parks Road, Oxford
Grade 7: £32,236 – £39,609 p.a.
THIS IS A RE-ADVERTISEMENT. PREVIOUS APPLICANTS NEED NOT RE-APPLY
We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join Professor Rob Klose’s research group (www.kloselab.co.uk) to study how the Polycomb chromatin modifying system represses gene expression. You will study this fundamental process using genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9–based genetic screening approaches. This will rely on the use of unique cell systems developed in the Klose lab to unbiasedly identify the pathways and factors that define how the Polyomb repressive systems regulate epigenetic chromatin states and repress gene expression.
Applicants should hold a PhD/DPhil, or be near completion of a PhD/DPhil in a relevant subject area. You will have a strong background in, or the desire use, CRISPR/Cas9-based genome-wide screening approaches to dissect the molecular processes that underpin Polycomb mediated gene repression. You will have the capacity to think critically and be able to formulate new ideas, together with the ability to work both independently and as part of a team in order to make new discoveries and to drive the research to publication. You will have exceptional organisational, communication and multitasking skills and have a keen interest in chromatin biology, epigenetics and transcription. Ideally, you will have experience in: mammalian cell culture, FACS analysis, production of viral CRISPR/Cas9 guide libraries for genome-wide screens, genetic screening, analysis of data from genome wide screens, although training in some of these areas will be available.
This full-time fixed-term post is funded by the ERC for up to 2.5 years in the first instance and is based at the Department of Biochemistry, South Parks Road, Oxford.
The starting salary offered will be based on qualifications and relevant skills acquired and will also be determined by the funding available.
Further particulars, including details of how to apply, can be obtained from the document below.
The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Friday 8 March 2019, with interviews for shortlisted candidates to be held as soon as possible thereafter.
