Erasmus+ internship focused on chromatin functions in barley and Arabidopsis

The Chromosome organization and function group led by Aleš Pečinka is looking for an Erasmus+ student to join our lab to contribute to the research program focused on genome organization and function in plants. We study how DNA is assembled into chromatin and chromosomes and how chromatin factors control plant development, stress resistance, and genome stability. 

We offer: 

Experience from a progressive international team
Work in model research labs and with crop/model plants
State-of-the-art research in plant (epi)genetics
Accommodation at the institute-owned facilities

We seek: 

MSc./BSc. students of molecular biology, genetics, biotechnology, or related field
Basic practical experience in molecular biology lab 
Enthusiasm to work with plants and chromosomes
