Open positions

We are hiring!

We are looking for 1 Postdoc and 1 PhD student to work on the OPUS project
Unraveling mechanisms and physiological outcome of lipid-evoked regulation of proteostasis in the intestine
financed for 4 years by the Polish National Science Center.


In the framework of this proposal, we will utilize a combination of cell biology, biochemical, and proteomic approaches as well as advanced microscopic techniques to tackle the mechanisms changing proteostasis of the enterocytes in response to lipids ingestion. We believe that the project will not only result in the identification of novel mechanisms ensuring intestinal homeostasis but will also lay the basis for the generation of new pharmacological strategies to treat metabolic and inflammatory diseases in the intestine.
