Location : The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) at the University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg, Luxembourg
Deadline for applications : unknown.
Description :

The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) was created within the Health Technologies Initiative from the Government of Luxembourg as one of the research priorities of the University of Luxembourg. The LCSB is an Interdisciplinary Centre of the University that combines experimental and computational approaches to analyse complex biological systems and disease processes. The Computational Biology Group (CBG) provides the LCSB with a solid infrastructure in developing theoretical framework for computational modeling on biomedical problems, especially in the area of network biology in the context of cellular programming/reprogramming. The CBG group includes researchers with theoretical, computational and wet lab backgrounds, thereby providing an unusually interdisciplinary environment.
The Computational Biology Group seeks a highly-skilled Ph.D. student to work on an exciting project on reconstruction and analysis of an integrated gene regulatory network model to elucidate key mechanisms of cellular reprogramming. The model will rely on the integration and mining of diverse transcriptomics and epigenomics data of different cell types from the Central Nervous System. The Ph.D. student is expected to collaborate with other members of the CBG to develop a computational methodology aiming at designing, in-silico, cellular reprogramming events, with a focus on the nervous system. This project will be carried out in collaboration with Prof. Noel Buckleys lab at Kings College London.
Requirements of the ideal candidate:
Master degree in Bioinformatics, Computer Science, Biology or a related discipline
Prior experience in mathematical modelling of biological networks, especially in network inference and analysis
Excellent working knowledge in English.
.
We offer:
Full contract for Ph.D. student for three years with possibility of renewal
Opportunity to do applied research to medical problems within a highly dynamic research institution (LCSB) and in collaboration with internationally recognized partners
An exciting international environment
A very competitive salary

Job Description: The bioinformatics unit at IRCCS Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza - Mendel laboratory in Rome is looking for one young PhD bioinformatician with specific experience and/or interest in the analysis of transcriptomic data.

The candidate will be mainly in charge of developing research on a range of hot applications and projects, dealing with microarrays, RNA-Seq and miRNA-Seq data. Main activities will be: (i) data analysis (short-reads mapping, variants call and annotation, functional enrichment analysis of gene expression data); (ii) networks analysis and simulation (artificial knockout, redundancy and lethality analysis, gene set essentiality); (iii) developing of ad-hoc software solutions/routines on clusters of CPUs and GPUs.

The correct cultural background (training in Biology / Computer Science / Statistics or a mix of the three) and a strong interest in working with high throughput data analysis will be considered at the same level of specific experience in the above-mentioned fields.
Knowledge of molecular modeling and simulation and one of these languages: python, perl, R, Java, C++, C# is a golden plus. Good knowledge of Scientific English will be positively evaluated for this position, together with good presentation and teamwork skills.

A CV with one professional reference, details on educational background and of the biological and/or bioinformatic and/or data analysis skills and experience should be sent by email for a preliminary selection to: Tommaso Mazza, CSS-Mendel: t.mazza@css-mendel.it

Context
Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza is an Institute for hospitalization, care, and scientific research located in San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy. It integrates clinical assistance (with inpatient and outpatient facilities) and research. It has an affiliate institute, CSS-Mendel, located in Rome. Between the two sites, it employs over 100 researchers who focus on genetics. The Center is equipped with state of the art genomics technology (SOLiD 5500XL next generation sequencer, Illumina MiSeq, Affymetrix/Agilent microarray platforms, etc) as well as a dedicated high performance computing facility, a non-conventional workstation of GPUs and a short- and long-term storage disk.

Applications
Candidates should send:
• a cover letter explaining the role they would like to undertake within the Center, even if it is not listed in this job adv, stating clearly why they would be a good fit to the proposed role, and what they would bring to the Center in terms of expertise, ideas, talent;
• a CV including a list of publications;
• List of referees;
