Transposable elements, KRAB Zinc fingers, and primate specific gene regulation in human pancreas development

  • Computational post-doc (fellow or associate): Job Advert

Studying primate-specific innovation of gene regulatory networks in pnacreas development using perturbation single-cell transcriptomics and chromatin accesibility datasets.

This position is part of a Wellcome Collaborator award, collaboration with Michael Imbeault, Cambridge and Timo Otonkoski & Diego Balboa, Helsinki, together with Elisa De Franco and Andrew Hattersley at Exeter.

Builds of our discovery that primate specific KRAB zinc finger is necessary for pancreas development now out in Nature Genetics!.
