The De Wulf lab at the Department of Cellular, Computational, and Integrative Biology (CIBIO), University of Trento, Italy, is looking for an outstanding, highly motivated post-doctoral scientist to study the activity of a conserved oncogenic kinase in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The research project wishes to understand how this kinase regulates (peri)centromeric chromatin and telomeres to ensure timely kinetochore assembly, chromosome transmission, and cellular aging.

For publications related to the topic, see: Bock LJ et al (2012) Nature Cell Biology, Iacovella MG et al (2015) Nature Communications, Iacovella MG et al (2018) Nucleic Acids Research, Berto G et al (2019) Current Genetics, Jurikov K et al. (2021) Trends in Genetics. More details of currently work (Nature Communications (2023), in press) and the proposed project itself will be gladly provided upon request.
