Dear all,

I’m writing to advertise a postdoc position that we have just opened in my group at the Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology in Utrecht, the Netherlands. The project centers around better understanding the role of evolutionarily young proteins in human development and childhood brain cancers.

The profile we are looking for is a computational postdoc with PhD experience in evolutionary genetics/genomics and an interest in figuring out how translation of RNAs has evolved. What we offer are a great team and working environment, a combined wet- and dry lab, a competitive salary & job benefits, and awesome science (if I can say so myself).

The vacancy and application instructions can be found here: https://werkenbijprinsesmaximacentrum.nl/en/vacancy/postdoc-computational-evolutionary-genomics-of-non-canonical-orfs-and-microproteins-in-childhood-brain-cancer-2/

You can also apply via LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4122630215

More information about our lab incl recent publications can be found here: https://research.prinsesmaximacentrum.nl/en/research-groups/van-heesch-group

If you know someone who might be interested, it would be fantastic if you could forward the job ad or get them in touch with me. I’d be happy to provide more information about the project and lab.

Thank you,

Sebastiaan
