Work Plan: The selected fellow will be involved in various stages of the research associated with the project “Dissecting the molecular mechanisms of X-chromosome inactivation using human embryonic stem cells”. This project employs cutting-edge molecular biology techniques (CRISPR/Cas9, CRISPRi, RNA FISH) and next-generation sequencing approaches (e.g., RNA-seq and ChIP-seq), as well as bioinformatics analyses, with the ultimate goal of better understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) in human cells.

The candidate will be actively involved in both the laboratory and computational aspects of the project. In addition, the fellow is expected to supervise students associated with the project over the course of the fellowship.

Fellowship duration: The fellowship is for 11 months, starting on September of 2025. The scholarship contract may eventually be renewable, within the term of the project.
