Postdoc in bioinformatics/computational biology/immunology
Bioinformatician in single-cell transcriptomics of the human immune system
04.05.2025, Wissenschaftliches Personal
We look for a motivated bioinformatician/computational scientist or postdoctoral candidate from the life sciences with experience in single-cell analyses who contributes to unravel the regulation of the human immune system in human tissues.
Single-cell genomics is revolutionizing biology and medicine. Rapid technological advances now allow the profiling of genomes, transcriptomes and epigenomes at an unprecedented level of resolution. To harness the full potential of these developments, new computational methods specifically tailored towards the analysis of single-cell omics data are essential. This has also been appreciated with the nomination “technology of the year 2019” by the journal Nature Methods.
Our research group employs state-of-the-art single cell sequencing technologies (10x Genomics, BD Rhapsody) and high-dimensional flow cytometry to unravel the dynamics of the human immune system.
We look for a motivated bioinformatician/computational scientist or postdoctoral candidate from the life sciences with experience in single-cell analyses who contributes to unravel the regulation of the human immune system in human tissues and in clinical settings such as organ transplantation and inflammatory diseases. We have scRNAseq data sets from 10x Genomics available and need you for data analysis using already implemented bioinformatic pipelines. This project is part of our ERC project ORGANise-T.
