The BioComputing UP Laboratory, headed by Prof. Silvio Tosatto, is a dynamic group of a dozen people working on several aspects of prediction of protein structure & function employing techniques at the intersection between biology, medicine, chemistry, physics & computer science.
Our aim is to integrate the development of novel methods and their application to biologically relevant problems.

We are looking for candidates with a solid Bioinformatics background, programming experience (Python, C++ and/or Java) and good knowledge of molecular biology (protein structure/function). Good knowledge of statistics as well as experience in using database systems (MongoDB, MySQL and/or Postgres) is desirable. Candidates should have a degree with top marks, optionally hold a PhD, and be highly motivated to work on interdisciplinary research. Good knowledge of English, an open-minded spirit, being collaborative and creative are crucial.

The fellowship, which should start as soon as possible, is renewable and initially for one year. It will be commensurate to experience, can be extended depending on performance and may lead to a PhD degree.
