The Cell & Infection Biology Lab at the Institute of Virology and Immunology and University of Bern, is seeking two PhD candidates to explore how flaviviruses affect fetal brain development. Using advanced human-based models, including placental and brain organoids, you will investigate how these viruses breach cellular barriers and cause damage. The project incorporates a wide range of techniques, including stem cell and molecular biology, 3D organoid models, whole-genome expression profiling, and high-resolution microscopy, among others.
