The role
The successful candidate will join the Dynamics of Protein Synthesis and RNA Decay Group. Their work will address an exciting question in gene regulation:



how cells dynamically control the stability of messenger RNAs by selective degradation during protein synthesis by the ribosome. The lab studies this problem in the context of both fundamental molecular mechanisms and disease-related regulation.
The position will be a chance to join a young, ambitious and curiosity-driven lab at the CRG, one of Europe’s prime institutes for molecular life sciences, surrounded by the dynamic Barcelona research environment. The project is embedded in the ERC-funded DECODE-PMD project to better understand peptide-mediated mRNA decay (PMD).
Key responsibilities include:
- Development of sequencing approaches to identify PMD substrates
- Bioinformatic data analysis and visualization
- Identification and mechanistic characterization of PMD candidate substrates
- Presentation of data at international conferences and manuscript preparation
- Leading and managing international collaborations
- Active participation in lab meetings and contri
