Projects Offered

In the vivid network of GenEvo, scientists from participating groups located at the Institute of Molecular Biology (IMB) and the Faculty of Biology of Mainz University are researching together on the core question of how complex and multi-layered gene regulatory systems have evolved.

We are now recruiting a new cohort of 14 PhD students (fully funded positions) continuing the research on our core question. Below you find a list of recruiting group leaders and descriptions of the offered PhD projects.

If you are interested in applying to one or more of the projects below, fill out our registration form until 15 July 2024. Guidelines for registration can be found here.

The referees you list during your registration will receive a personalised link allowing them to upload their reference letter directly and confidentially. After registration, you will receive a link to the application form where you can indicate up to 5 projects that are of interest to you. The deadline for application submission is 15 July 2024. When you are invited to our interview days, you have the opportunity to modify your group preferences based on your interaction with the group leaders.
