We look forward to your application and the possibility of welcoming you to our team!
We are looking for a PhD student to join our lab of Neuroepigenetics at EPFL!
In this project, we are interested in deciphering the epigenetic mechanisms of memory formation, storage and change, in particular with respect to traumatic memories. Specifically, we hypothesize that epigenetic marks can serve as readouts of past neuronal activity, with the potential to molecularly encode memories in the long run. Your background is ideally situated at the crossroads of molecular/epigenetic biology and bioinformatics, complemented with past experience and/or a strong interest in memory research.
The starting date for this position is fall 2025.
If you are interested, please apply through the doctoral school in neurosciences at EPFL (EDNE). Thank you!
There are currently no Postdoc positions available.
