Post-doctoral Research Fellow

Dr Nalesso’s group is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow to work on an MRC-funded project aimed to evaluate the role of microRNAs in modulating the activity of the Wnt signalling in the articular cartilage and in osteoarthritis. 

We seek someone with experience in cell and molecular biology, who has already worked in characterising the function of microRNAs in the articular cartilage and/or other biological systems. Expertise in the analysis of RNA sequencing data would be preferred.
