FW: UPDATED AD: Young scientist/student to genomics of kidney transplantation project in the FRC Blood Service, Helsinki, Finland

Junior scientist/student to genomics of kidney transplantation project in the Finnish Red Cross Blood Service, Helsinki, Finland. We are starting a research project on genomics of complications in kidney transplantation. The project is part of our “Whole genome histocompatibility” project, in which we so far have screened novel genetic factors in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (see e.g. Ritari et al Leukemia 2018<http://www.nature.com/articles/s41375-018-0229-3>, Hyvärinen et al Scientific Reports 2018<https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-15915-3> or McCarroll et al Nature Genet 2009<https://www.nature.com/articles/ng.490>). We are now looking for a junior scientist (student/FM or equivalent) who would start the kidney transplantation project by doing sample inventory and selection in collaboration with the transplantation unit at HUCS. The first period would be till the end of year 2018, starting immediately, and the project may be continued as a PhD project, in which skills in genetic data analysis are necessary. For more information, please contact Jukka Partanen: +358 50 370 7383 or jukka.partanen(a)veripalvelu.fi<mailto:jukka.partanen@veripalvelu.fi>. Please submit your application by August 31st 2018 via this link.<https://www.sympahr.net/public/pq.aspx?a121e357&lang=en-US> Finnish Red Cross Blood Service is a non-profit organisation responsible for collecting blood and supplying blood products all over Finland in a centralised manner, with the annual turnover of about 60 million €. The FRC Blood Service provides all histocompatibility testing for clinical transplantation in Finland. We have a research budget of over 3 million €, with the focus areas in cell therapies, blood donors and genomics of transplantation. Over 60 PhD theses have been completed in the Blood Service and every year 30-40 peer reviewed scientific papers are published by our scientists.

FW: Open PhD position - Jyväskylä

Are you interested in a PhD project studying muscle development in Drosophila? In multicellular organism cell adhesion to other cells and to the extracellular matrix is very tightly regulated. Depending on the tissue, the attachment structures are adjusted to tolerate various pulling forces and sometimes the attachments are opened and reorganized. For force tolerance adhesion proteins in the cellular membrane need to be connected to intracellular structural elements, the cytoskeleton, and this connection is the key regulatory point. We are studying this process by studying the development of fly inderect flight muscles. These are the muscles in flies that most closely resemble human skeletal muscles and their attachment sites are similar to myotendinous junctions, the connections between muscle and tendon. Drosophila flies are very useful model organism, because their development can be relatively easily followed under microscope, thousands mutants and fluorescence protein marker fly lines are available, genetic modification and genetic crossing is relative easy. Furthermore, flies have often less genes affecting same functions and thus the effects of individual mutations are easier to observe. There is a University of Jyväskylä- funded 4 year PhD position available in the project. The funding will start Jan 1st, 2019. You can apply if you aim to finish your MSci degree before that. Application Deadline is August 31.2018. Send application via SAIMA<https://rekry.saima.fi/certiahome/open_job_view.html?did=5600&jc=12&id=0000…> Further Information: Jari Ylänne, jylanne(a)jyu.fi<mailto:jylanne@jyu.fi>, phone +358-50-4285273

FW: Avoimia väitöskirjatutkija/post-doc -paikkoja/ PhD-student or post-doctoral fellow positions

FYI Download advertisement: http://www.biocenter.helsinki.fi/bi/lappalainen/2018_advert.pdf http://www.biocenter.helsinki.fi/bi/lappalainen/openpositions.html We are looking for a PhD-student or post-doctoral fellow to join our team at Institute of Biotechnology, University of Helsinki to unravel the basic principles of cytoskeletal dynamics The actin cytoskeleton is critical for a vast number of vital cellular processes such as morphogenesis, motility, endocytosis, cytokinesis, and mechanosensing. Abnormalities in actin-dependent processes, including cell morphogenesis, motility and cytokinesis, often occur in cancer cells. Moreover, many pathogens exploit the actin polymerization machinery of the host cell during the infection process. Thus, elucidating the mechanisms of actin dynamics will be valuable for understanding the principles of these actin-dependent pathological states. The research group of Pekka Lappalainen uses a wide array of biochemical, biophysical, cell biological, and genetic methods to reveal how structure and dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton are regulated in various cellular processes. We are now looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic PhD-student/post-doctoral fellow to join in a project that focuses on general principles that control actin dynamics in human cells as well as in evolutionarily distant pathogenic unicellular parasites. Strong expertise in protein biochemistry or cell biology is beneficial although not necessary, and the most important quality of a successful candidate is strong interest towards carrying out research. Please, send you Curriculum Vitae and an application letter describing your research interest to prof. Pekka Lappalainen (pekka.lappalainen(a)helsinki.fi<mailto:pekka.lappalainen@helsinki.fi>) by September 30th, 2018.
