This position is funded by Research Ireland and is available from 18/11/26 for a period of 2 years with the possibility of renewal.

In the Gahan lab we use the sea anemone Nematostella to investigate chromatin function during development and differentiation. Nematostella is part of the phylum cnidaria, the sister group to the majority of animals and thus in a pivotal phylogenetic position for understanding early animal evolution. We work to dissect chromatin regulation during development and cell differentiation, using the nervous system as a model. In doing so we aim to understand how the processes underlying developmental gene regulation in more “complex” animals first evolved while simultaneously addressing more general questions about the role of chromatin in development and differentiation. The selected candidate will support work on this project by maintaining animal cultures as well as participating in the generation and characterization of transgenic lines.
