Job No.: 588677
Employment Type: Full-time
Duration: 3 year fixed-term appointment
Location: Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI), 15 Innovation Walk, Monash University, Clayton
Remuneration: Annual living allowance based on Monash University’s
Research Training Program (RTP), stipend of $27,872 per annum (2019 rate
– indexed annually)
The Opportunity
The Zenker group is seeking an enthusiastic PhD candidate interested
in cell biology and microscopy to uncover the real-time rearrangements
of the inner skeleton of a cell during embryonic development. The
successful applicant will gain extensive expertise in live imaging using
various microscope systems, mouse husbandry, genotyping, cell culture
systems, cloning, immunostaining, mouse embryo dissection, injections
and imaging, drug treatments and computational image analysis.
Every cell has an internal skeleton composed of filament-like
structures called microtubules. Remarkably, these structures can rapidly
re-organize their entire network to allow a cell to change its shape,
function and fate. However, most studies on microtubule dynamics have
been limited to simplified 2D cell culture systems or fixed tissues.
Thus, the accurate spatial-temporal regulation of microtubule
remodelling in intact tissues remains under-explored.
The combined use of state-of-the-art confocal microscopy, molecular
manipulations, and computational image analysis allowed us to identify
an unprecedented form of microtubule growth in the living mouse embryo.
The emanating filaments serve as transport railways to establish
asymmetries in the cellular organization of the embryo. This mechanism
is required for the formation of the pluripotent inner cell mass, which
will give rise to the embryo proper.
Candidate Requirements
The successful applicant must be an Australian resident with the following attributes:
-
An excellent academic track record in biological sciences
-
Interest and commitment
-
Experience in microscopy would be an advantage
Applicants will be considered provided they fulfil the criteria for
PhD admission at Monash University. Details of eligibility requirements
to undertake a PhD at ARMI are available at armi.org.au/careers-education/higher-degree-research.
Candidates will be required to meet Monash entry requirements, which include English-language skills.
Successful applicants will be expected to enrol no later than 1 June 2019.
How To Apply
Supervisor: Dr Jennifer Zenker
Submit your expression of interest to Dr Jennifer Zenker (Jennifer.Zenker@monash.edu) and include the following:
-
A cover letter that includes a brief statement addressing the
Candidate Requirements and the reason for your interest in the project
-
A curriculum vitae, including a list of any published works
-
A full statement of academic record, supported by scanned copies of relevant certified documentation
-
Contact details of two academic referees

Åbo Akademi University is an internationally acknowledged research
university with an extensive responsibility for providing education in
Swedish in Finland. The activities cover research and education in most
disciplines from natural sciences and technology, humanities, pedagogics
and theology, to business and social sciences.
Åbo Akademi University invites applications for a fixed term position as a PhD Student in Cell Biology starting 1.4.2019 within SPACE-Project (42 months) and within BACE-Project (48 months)
Research group
The
Cell Fate lab led by Professor Cecilia Sahlgren is focused on the
fundamental molecular mechanisms that guide cell fate and cell
organization in stem cell differentiation, tissue formation and in
disease such as cancer. Together with collaborators we utilize such
knowledge to develop material-based medical technologies to control
these mechanisms in regenerative and cancer therapies. Coordination of
cells through molecular cell signaling pathways is crucial for the
formation of functional tissues and signaling is often deregulated in
diseases such as cancer, allowing cells to acquire abnormal functions
and pathological remodeling of tissue architecture. The physical,
mechanical and chemical stimuli of the microenvironment also influence
cell signaling and cell fate decisions during development and disease
progression.
Project description
We are seeking 2 ambitious PhD candidates to join our projects on Spatiotemporal
activation of cell functions (SPACE) 1.4.2019-31.8.2022 or
Bioelectronic activation of cell functions (BACE) 1.4.2019-28.2.2023. These
projects form an interdisciplinary approach bringing together
researchers within experimental physics and molecular biology, in order
to activate Notch signalling on demand. The Notch signalling pathway is a
seemingly simple signalling system where the interaction between a
ligand at the surface of one cell and a receptor at the surface of
another gives rise to one active signalling fragment, which regulates
target gene expression. Notch is involved in cell fate specification
during development, usually by facilitating binary cell fate decisions
or by maintaining stem cell fate. Perturbation of the signalling cascade
is a contributing factor in the development of various diseases.
Strictly organised, both spatial and temporal, expression of different
receptors and ligands is essential for proper development of different
organs, with each consecutive activation of Notch driving a specific
morphogenic process. The possibility of controlling Notch receptor
activation by regulating ligand dose and the specific timing of
activation will enable us to better understand different developmental
patterns.

accepting applications from enthusiastic and highly talented candidates
who are interested in a dynamic, stimulating and ambitious environment

Western Blotting, PCR) is required. Knowledge in e.g. biophysics,
synthetic biology, chemistry or engineering (with strong molecular
background) is an asset.
CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT
