Job description
Are you seeking a PhD opportunity in
Molecular Toxicology
or
Nutritional Biochemistry ?
If you are a highly motivated graduate student eager to explore complex biological mechanisms, this call deserves your attention. A fully funded PhD position is available in our laboratory within the
PhD Program in Life Sciences
(XLII Cycle) at the Magna Graecia University of Catanzaro (Italy).
Candidates joining our group may choose between two complementary and high‐impact research lines.
The first project aims to uncover the metabolic function of an intriguing and understudied enzyme, potentially central to the health benefits of polyphenol‐rich diets, tumor biology, and beyond its conventional role in Phase I drug metabolism.
The second project is ideal for candidates with a strong interest in clinical and translational research, focusing on the evaluation of nutraceuticals and the molecular mechanisms underlying their efficacy.
Both projects integrate advanced omics technologies, data‐mining approaches,



and agevolazioni from international collaborations with leading research centers.
If you see yourself contributing to innovative biomedical research, this is the moment to apply.
