意大利欧洲肿瘤研究所招收生物学博士后

Computational Biologist - Genomics : Milan, Italy

One postdoctoral position for a computational biologist to work on the epigenetic and transcriptional control of inflammation and cancer is available at the European Institute of Oncology (IEO), Milan.

We are looking for a highly motivated scientist with a strong interest in transcriptional regulation and epigenetics. The successful candidate will be in charge of next-generation sequencing data analysis and integration.

Computational programming skills are required.

Competitive salary, commensurate with experience and track record, and benefits.

Please send a CV, a one-page statement of research interest and contact information for two-three referees to Gioacchino Natoli at gioacchino.natoli@ieo.eu
