The lab's mission is to unravel fundamental mechanisms that control the elongation phase of transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) in normal and disease states. We are particularly interested in essential and biomedically important transcriptional cyclin-dependent kinases (tCDKs) that trigger release of Pol II from promoter-proximal pausing and facilitate productive Pol II elongation along genes. We aim to exploit the knowledge on basic principles of gene regulation to help devise novel treatments of many diseases that stem from misregulated gene transcription programs. More information about the lab, including the latest research and news, can be found here: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/center-for-gene-regulation

We are looking for a creative thinker with strong analytical skills and a passion for science.
