Finland, Helsingfors (Helsinki)

We are recruiting a

Doctoral Researcher

to the project ‘Targeting transcription elongation to modify the prostate cancer tumor immune micro-environment’ to the research group Transcriptional Rewiring in Cancer led by Harri Itkonen (University of Helsinki). The project is pursued in close collaboration with Professor Ian G Mills’ research group based in University of Oxford and it is funded by Prostate Cancer UK. The position is for 3 years, and we hope that the candidate starts in autumn 2025.

Background

The research in Itkonen laboratory is focused on how the information embedded in the genome is decoded through transcription, and how the defects in this process can be used as a basis for therapy. Currently, we are probing how the crosstalk between transcriptional kinases and other factors regulating RNA polymerase II activity function in normal and cancer cells. In particular, we are interested in the kinases that promote transcription elongation, CDK9 and CDK12, and highlight few examples that are particularly relevant for the current project. We discovered that CDK9 inhibition stimulates transcription of short mRNAs (Gondane & al. 2025, PMID: 40186208) and leads to excessive splicing defects (Hu & al., 2021, PMID: 34592899), which the cell interprets as a viral infection (Yalala & al. 2024, PMID: 38661032). In our projects, we make extensive use of comprehensive transcriptional profiling, including RNA-seq, SLAM-seq, alternative splicing analysis, combined with epigenetic profiling using ChIP-seq, FAIRE-seq and more recently also ATAC-seq (for examples, see Itkonen & al. 2020, PMID: 3261155; Gondane & al. 2022, PMID: 35164752,Gondane & al. 2023, PMID: 36975490, and Liang & al. 2024, PMID: 38775167).

For further information, please refer to our research groups’ web pages:

https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/transcriptional-rewiring-in-cancer

https://www.nds.ox.ac.uk/team/ian-mills

Project

Prostate cancer is immunologically cold, which means that the body’s own immune system fails to detect and eradicate the cancer cells. We have discovered that the drug-induced defects in transcription elongation activate immunogenic signaling in prostate cancer cells. In particular, this can be achieved by inhibiting CDK9 using compounds already assessed in clinical trials against other cancers.

Our main aim in this project is to develop CDK9 inhibitor-based treatment against prostate cancer for durable response. To achieve this, we will model how both normal and cancer cells respond to CDK9 inhibition, and if the response can be augmented using immunomodulatory and / or other strategies.

The project is divided so that the organoid experiments and bioinformatics are performed in University of Helsinki, while the animal experimentation is performed in University of Oxford. The project utilizes a number of sequencing techniques including RNA-seq, SLAM-seq, scSLAM-seq, and ‘Breaks Labeling In Situ and Sequencing (BLISS)’.

The candidate

We are seeking a motivated Bioinformatics graduate who wants to expand their expertise to cancer research / molecular biology. The proposed project is intended for an MSc-level person who wishes to acquire PhD degree. PhD Trainees in my laboratory typically graduate within 3-4 years with competitive publication output, and we put great emphasis on planning the project with clear milestones set in the beginning. This strategy allows the Trainees and me to reflect on the progress and to make adjustments as need be. Project involves significant work together with collaborating groups based in Oxford (Mills) and Switzerland (Clémentine LeMagnen). The appointee will be based in Helsinki and the project includes research visit to Switzerland to acquire specific expertise required for the project execution.
