Welcome!

I compiled a list of 350 #funding opportunities for #postdoctoral research #fellowships:

I realized I should share this again after mentioning it to some folks at the #efp2026

We are looking for someone to lead the new Facility for Protein Biochemistry & Biophysics at the MPI of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg — please spread the word and apply if you are interested!

Big thanks for collaborating on tool development, Michalis!

#ECR, PhDs and postdocs, take note!
Are you aiming for a professorship and would like to lead an independent junior research group? Then come to our info session about the DFG's Emmy Noether Programme, its eligibility requirements and your funding opportunities.

A warm welcome in the GönomiX-team, Eric!

A small contribution to an important topic, in Nature Reviews Biodiversity. I highlight @howbrainsevolve.bsky.social and Harvey's work in 2000 and illustrate it's pivotal role in our understanding into the principles of brain evolution.
Have a read - it's short!

⏰Deadline for abstract submission approaching: Our #GoenomiX Symposium "Frontiers in Molecular Zoology" will happen on Sept 24-25 at @uni-goettingen.de. Submit your abstract until June 30: events.gwdg.de/event/1458/

I’ve officially resigned as Associate Editor for Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience. It used to be a reputable journal, but became a case study in how forced automation destroys academic integrity. 👇

Amazing talk by Nico Posnien: everyone knows the "Freddy Mercury" genes (the known core genes of GRNs) but the other band members (I forgot their names) influence size and shape of morphological structures.

🗣️Invited speakers are @isabelalmudi.bsky.social, Mathilde Paris, Benjamin Prud'homme, Matteo Rauzi, @johnnyds.bsky.social, @metteh-thorsager.bsky.social, @tickphysiology.bsky.social & @verabiol.bsky.social

📣 Join us for the Spirit Summer School "Molecular Genetics in Zoology" with three days of hands-on training and consulting in #RNAi, #CRISPR genome editing, in-situ hybridization, #imaging and #RNA-seq for emerging model systems. 🐌🪰🪱🐞🧬
Registration is open until June 30: events.gwdg.de/event/1457/

📢 PhD Position Alert! 🪲
Fully funded PhD position (65% TV-L E13) at @uni-goettingen.de to study the evolution of morphological novelties in a darkling beetle.
You will join the interdisciplinary "GönomiX" graduate school: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/home/6242...

🧬 The Project: You will identify the Gene Regulatory Networks (GRNs) driving head horn development by comparing "horn" vs. "no-horn" phenotypes.
🛠️ Methods:
developmental single-cell omics, RNAi & HCR imaging
🎓 You: MSc in DevBio, Genetics, or EvoBio. Experience with sc-sequencing is a ➕!

🎓Includes a structured training program, retreats, and workshops: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/training/...
Interested? 🗣️ Online Q&A: Dec 17th, 2pm CET (Zoom) 📅 Application deadline: Jan 14th, 2026
📝Apply via the joint portal with @imprsgs.bsky.social: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/applicati...

🤝 Join a collaborative team of 9 PIs from @uni-goettingen.de & @mpi-nat.bsky.social
You will either: 💻 Pioneer novel bioinformatics tools, or 🧪 develop tools to study gene function (Genome editing, single-molecule imaging)
Project details: www.uni-goettingen.de/de/research/...

🧬 10 @dfg.de-funded PhD positions at @goettingen-campus.de 🧬
❗Focus: Evolution of gene regulatory networks & Wnt signaling in emerging models (insects, snails, flatworms, cnidarians).
💻 Methods: 'Omics, Bioinformatics, CRISPR/RNAi & Imaging.
📌Start: June 2026.
