A computational postdoc position and a bioinformatician position are available in my recently established lab at the Centre for Integrative Biology (CIBIO) in Trento, Italy. The positions are in the context of an AIRC grant and are immediately available.
Successful candidates will be involved in the design and implementation of strategies to study the role of inherited polymorphisms in combination with time- dependent variables and somatic events on cancer genesis, progression and resistance.
The ideal postdoc candidate will have a PhD in Computer Science, Bioinformatics, Computational Biology or equivalent, experience in the analysis of next generation sequencing and high-density array data from human cells, strong analytical and quantitative background and programming skills. Background in cancer genomics is recommended.
The ideal bioinformatician candidate will have a four or five years degree in Computer Science, Bioinformatics or equivalent, experience in the management of large datasets, implementation of processing pipelines and strong programming skills. Background in biology/genomics is a plus.
Expression of interest by highly motivated individuals should be sent to Alessandro Romanel (alessandro.romanel@unitn.it) along with a detailed CV, a cover letter describing research interests and experience, and contact information for two references.
