Postdoctoral Position in Circular RNA Biology and Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Core
Investigate how circular RNAs (circRNAs) and double-stranded RNAs contribute to intestinal inflammation and epithelial repair in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Role type
Postdoctoral Research Fellow (RNA biology)
Builds
Research on RNA regulatory mechanisms in the gut epithelium
Domain
