Prospective students
I supervise master’s and PhD students working with functional genomics, CRISPR screening, genome editing and cell-based models of domesticated animals. Projects usually combine wet-lab work with bioinformatic analysis of sequencing data. If this sounds interesting, send me an email with a short description of your background and interests and we can discuss potential opportunities.
