Links among researchers in the ANU College of Health and Medicine, and the College of Science and Environment provides access to a broader life science research context at the university.

**Position overview**
While it is known that epigenetic modifications play a crucial role in regulating all aspects of genome function, a major gap in knowledge is how this second dimension of genomic information is functionally translated or interpreted to regulate specific patterns of gene expression. This project will reveal new fundamental principles of gene regulation that include elucidating the precise order of epigenetic and transcription events required for a gene to be either activated or repressed during cancer progression and cellular differentiation. This will involve using state-of-the-art genomic and proteomic approaches to reveal the drivers of cell fate. Applicants will require strong skills in cellular, molecular and biochemical techniques needed to study the expression of genes in cells.

- Other documents, if required.
