Postdoctoral Fellow — Computational Biology (Single-Cell)

EURAXESS Ireland; Basel; Vor Ort; CHF 90.000 - 110.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

University of Basel in Basel, Switzerland, invites applications for a fully funded postdoctoral position in the Dixon Lab to study neuro-immune interactions in cancer, focusing on intra-tumoral neuron roles and immuno-oncology. The project emphasizes single-cell and spatial omics analyses within a highly interdisciplinary team.

You will design, analyze, and interpret computational experiments, develop reproducible pipelines, and collaborate with experimental scientists while mentoring junior

Qualifikationen
