PhD Position in Nanotechnology and Biomedicine

A PhD position is available as a collaborative project between the groups Aitziber L. Cortajarena (Biomolecular Nanotechnology Lab at CIC biomaGUNE) and Lorea Blázquez (RNA-processing and therapeutics Lab at Biodonostia). This project will be focused on the development of RNA-editing tools through engineering of biomolecule-nanomaterial hybrids for therapeutic approaches. This collaborative project aims to design and generate hybrid multifunctional modules based on Cas13 proteins or repeat protein scalffolds from natural RNA binding domains fused to an engineered modules in order to coordinate gold nanoclusters.
