The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic PhD applicant to join our research team at Monash University. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to undertake a PhD project in collaboration with Newcastle University, UK, focusing on mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS). This project aims to determine how transmission of the pathogenic mtDNA ;G variant is shaped by the biochemical demands of generating and transmitting a haploid maternal genome during mammalian oogenesis.

About the Project

The project will involve a combination of laboratory and computational approaches to investigate the mechanisms underlying MELAS. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work with a team of experienced researchers and contribute to the development of new approaches to improve reproductive outcomes for women undergoing MD treatment.

Eligibility Requirements

Candidates must meet the Monash University minimum requirements for admission to a PhD. We are seeking applicants with a strong background in neuroscience, molecular biology, or a related field.
