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 by an interdisciplinary, motivated and creative scientific team which is supported both by a flexible and efficient administration and by high-end and innovative technologies.

Organised, structured, selfmotivated and conscientious working style.
Ability to communicate results in a clear and structured way, in presentations and in writing.
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, and the ability to function as part of a team.
Motivation to work in an interdisciplinary environment.
