Mitochondrial Disease Researcher – PhD Opportunity
2 weeks ago
The Opportunity
We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team at the Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute. The successful candidate will undertake a PhD project that aims to unravel the interplay between accurate transmission of the maternal nuclear genome and transmission of a pathogenic mtDNA variant.
As part of this project, the candidate will spend up to 12 months at Newcastle University, UK, and the remainder of the time at Monash University. This collaboration will provide a unique opportunity to gain experience in both Australian and international research environments.
The project aims to determine how transmission of the pathogenic mtDNA variant is shaped by the biochemical demands of generating and transmitting a haploid maternal genome during mammalian oogenesis.
Key responsibilities include:
- Conducting research in the fields of female reproduction and mitochondrial disease
- Collaborating with researchers at Monash and Newcastle Universities
- Publishing research findings in top-tier journals
Eligibility Requirements
Candidates must meet the Monash University minimum requirements for admission to a PhD. We are seeking enthusiastic and motivated applicants who are passionate about advancing our understanding of mitochondrial disease.
How to Apply
Interested applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, academic transcript(s), and any other relevant documents. We look forward to receiving your application.
