The Computational Cancer Genomics Lab investigates condition-specific mechanisms of tumor progression through the analysis of large-scale cancer genomics data. We are currently seeking a highly motivated Bioinformatician to join our team. In this role, you will analyze large-scale multi-omics and cancer genomic datasets. Our ultimate goal is to unravel how cancer driver genes—with a primary focus on p53 mutations—alter their mode of action depending on specific mutational contexts, paving the way for improved precision cancer therapies.

Selection Criteria

Master’s degree (or equivalent experience) in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Statistics, Computer Science, Genomics, or a related quantitative field.

NGS Data Analysis: Practical experience in processing, quality control, and analysis of large-scale sequencing data (e.g., WGS, WES, RNA-seq).

Statistical & Computational Modeling: Proven track record of developing computational or statistical models for biological data interpretation.

Pipeline Development: Experience in building, automating,



and scaling bioinformatics pipelines for high-throughput genomic data.

Cancer Genomics: Prior research experience in cancer genomics, somatic mutation analysis, or structural/position-specific variant interpretation is a strong plus.

Programming Languages: Proficiency in programming languages commonly used in bioinformatics, such as R, Python, or equivalent languages.

Sequencing Data Analysis: Hands-on experience in processing and analyzing large-scale sequencing data.

Computing Environment & Workflows: Familiarity with High-Performance Computing (HPC)/supercomputing cluster environments and workflow management systems.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English are required. All application materials, including a detailed CV, must be submitted in English.
