PhD Studentship: Delineating small RNA-mediated chromatin silencing

This four-year studentship is funded by Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute and includes full funding for University fees and an index-linked stipend starting at £22,500 for four years. The studentship is designed for a talented and motivated student to join an interdisciplinary team in Professor Greg Hannon's lab located at the CRUK Cambridge Institute to investigate the molecular mechanisms of small RNA-mediated chromatin silencing. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Professor Greg Hannon and Dr Ben Nicholson on ground-breaking research in chromatin biology and epigenetics. The funding covers home and international fees, maintenance, student visa cost, and student immigration health surcharge.
