The Institute The Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) is an international biomedical research institute of excellence, based in Barcelona, Spain, with more than 400 scientists from 44 countries. The CRG is composed of an interdisciplinary, motivated, and creative scientific team supported by a flexible and efficient administration and high-end innovative technologies.
In April 2021, the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) received the renewal of the 'HR Excellence in Research' Award from the European Commission. This recognition reflects the Institute's commitment to developing an HR Strategy for Researchers, designed to align practices and procedures with the principles of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers (Charter and Code).
The role Alternative splicing (AS) is an important process that allows the production of different messenger RNAs and proteins from a single gene in humans and other complex organisms. AS plays a crucial role in mechanisms controlling gene expression. Mutations affecting AS contribute to the development of many diseases, including cancer and neurodegeneration. While drugs that target AS have recently entered the clinic and provided the first therapy for common genetic disorders, there is still much to learn about the mechanisms controlling splicing and their modulation by small molecules. The role of the PhD to be hired will be to contribute to the characterization of molecular mechanisms of AS regulation, including the identification and analysis of small molecule modulators and their possible applications in medicine.
About the team The group of Juan Valcárcel at the Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG) of Barcelona has a long trajectory studying pre-mRNA splicing regulation. The group combines high-throughput methods with detailed biochemical and cellular assays and collaborates closely with other groups working on computational and structural biology to study molecular mechanisms and networks of alternative splicing regulation in cancer. The group also develops mechanism-based novel therapeutic approaches for oncology. Juan Valcárcel obtained his PhD from work on influenza virus splicing regulation carried out in the lab of Juan Ortín at the Center of Molecular Biology Severo Ochoa in Madrid. After a postdoc with Michael Green at the University of Massachusetts, working on mechanisms of splice site recognition and regulation, he established his group at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg in 1996. In 2002 the group moved to the newly created Center for Genomic Regulation (CRG) of Barcelona. He is a Research Professor of the Catalonian Institute for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA) and associated Professor of the University Pompeu Fabra. Elected EMBO member in 2004, he was Deputy Coordinator of the European Alternative Splicing Network of Excellence and Coordinator of the RNAREG Consolider consortium, the European Innovation Council-funded TAONas-LUAD, and the European Research Council-funded UNLEASH projects. He is a member of the Editorial Board of the Journals Molecular Cell, RNA, and Molecular and Cellular Biology, as well as of the Scientific Advisory Boards of several Research Institutes and companies in Europe and the USA. Our team is currently composed of 2 technicians, 1 lab manager, 2 PhD students, 5 postdocs, and 1 Staff Scientist.
