CALL FOR APPLICATIONS ADMISSION TO DOCTORAL PROGRAMMES – 40th cycle (AY 2024/25) at the University of Trieste

Il Premio Francesca Martini per una tesi di laurea di tipo sperimentale in Oncoematologia dell’importo di €5000 nasce dall’idea di sostenere i giovani laureati di valore che desiderino portare avanti la propria carriera nell’ambito della ricerca e incoraggiarli ad accedere al percorso di dottorato.

The PhD students will be part of an interdisciplinary project combining live imaging, genetics, and computational approaches using C. elegans

The laboratory directed by CNR researcher Dr. Marianna Leonzino in the "Area Neuro" of the Humanitas Research Hospital is seeking talented and highly motivated researchers at all career stages. Successful applicants will join a vibrant young team working on the role of interorganellar communication in neurodegenerative diseases and will contribute to a project aimed at dissecting cellular pathways leading to neuronal death in the context of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The project is part of a collaborative effort involving also the lab of Dr. Paolo Colombi (IGM-CNR). The team uses human IPSC-derived neurons as a cellular model and takes advantage of gene-editing techniques to develop disease-modeling cell lines.
