Amniogenesis in 3D Stem Cell Models: Evolutionary Insights

Crick; Greater London; Hybrid; GBP 21,000 - 26,000; Full time

Job summary

Crick Institute invites applications for a PhD project supervised by Silvia Santos. The project investigates how the human amnion forms, comparing species to define signaling requirements for amnion specification and morphogenesis using 3D stem cell models and long-term imaging.

The successful candidate will gain hands-on training in quantitative imaging, single-cell technologies and organoid models, working in a collaborative environment renowned for developmental biology research.
