Join Us

We are always interested in hearing from motivated students and postdocs passionate about stress biology and aging. Reach out with your CV and a brief note of interest.

Who We’re Looking For?

We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds—biology, biochemistry, and computational sciences—who are eager to ask meaningful questions about stress, aging, and disease.

What You’ll Work On?

Our research integrates wet-lab and computational tools to uncover how ER stress and the UPR shape aging, immunity, and cellular homeostasis.

Opportunities?

We host MSc and PhD students, postdocs, final year projects, and international interns. Even when no positions are posted, we welcome spontaneous inquiries.
