A PhD position is available concerning UV-induced skin aging and enabling biomarker technologies for prevention. The group addresses mechanisms of genome instability of diverse physical and chemical exposures, such as from the environment, lifestyle factors and drugs, as well as cellular metabolism and oxidative stress. In this PhD project, you will expand this research to uncover biomarkers of aging, a process driven by DNA damage. You will use DNA sequencing and related methods to characterize cellular responses to stress and following interventions. Using bioinformatics, these data will be integrated with characteristics such as gene expression and DNA methylation.
