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. The successful candidate will be working full-time at the BioComputing UP Laboratory, University of Padova. Travel support for conferences and/or research visits abroad is provided.
To apply, please send your CV, with a motivation letter and brief description of your research background as well as the names of two (or more) references to: biocomp@bio.unipd.it.

Start date: As soon as possible

Duration: 1 year, renewable

Salary on grant: Commesurate to experience

HiCdat is easy-to-use and provides solutions starting from aligned reads up to in-depth analyses. Importantly, HiCdat is focussed on the analysis of larger structural features of chromosomes, their correlation to genomic and epigenomic features, and on comparative studies. It uses simple input and output formats and can therefore easily be integrated into existing workflows or combined with alternative tools.
