A two-year Postdoc position is available 15 April 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter in the Gorodkin lab (https://ivh.ku.dk/bioinformatics  Center for non-coding RNA in Technology and Health (RTH), (http://rth.dk) at Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (https://ivh.ku.dk/english), Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at University of Copenhagen. The CRISPR field is developing rapidly and is continuously providing novel technological possibilities by several types of applications including gene editing and gene surgery. An understudied key challenge in these types of applications is off-targets. These are guide RNAs (gRNAs) which edit or operate on other genes than the intended one. This postdoc position precisely addresses this problem by developing computational tools for guide RNA (gRNA) design that do not only take off-targets into account but also how these are affected by DNA modifications. The position is funded by the Independent Research Fund...

A PhD fellowship is available in the Computational Biology and Bioinformatics research group (https://ivh.ku.dk/bioinformatics), Center for non-coding RNA in Technology and Health (RTH), (http://rth.dk) at Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences (https://ivh.ku.dk/english), Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at University of Copenhagen. The CRISPR field is developing rapidly and is continuously providing novel technological possibilities by several types of applications including gene editing and gene surgery. A key challenge is to pick the most efficient on-target guide RNA (gRNA) among several possible ones in a specific target region while taking the possible off-targets, i.e., unintended edits elsewhere in the genome, into account. This PhD project aims to make computational methods for on-target gRNA design while taking the off-target potential into account. The position is funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation.
