The Institute
The Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) is an international biomedical research institute of excellence, based in Barcelona, Spain, with more than 400 scientists from 44 countries. The CRG is composed by an interdisciplinary, motivated and creative scientific team which is supported both by a adaptable and efficient administration and by high-end and innovative technologies.




We are seeking to hire a bioinformatician to support our lab's research on indirect genetic effects (genetic effects arising when heritable traits of one individual influence the phenotype of another, through social interactions), host-microbiome interactions, and microbiome transmission between hosts. We have developed several Nextflow pipelines for analysing data at scale and in a reproducible manner, and are now ready to apply them to the wealth of genomic, phenotypic and metagenomic data that our lab and our collaborators constantly generate, with a view to gain ground-breaking insights into the quantitative genetics and biology of host, microbiome and social partners interactions.
About the team/ lab/ department
The Social and Host-Microbiome Systems lab aims to expand our understanding of the genetic basis of complex traits to encompass genes found in the environment: genes of social partners and genes of the gut microbiota.
Our team is multidisciplinary, with expertise in quantitative/statistical genetic
