The Computational Biology Group (CBG) of the Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) has the following vacancy.

Doctoral Candidate (PhD student) in Computational Systems Biology (m/f)
- Fixed-term contract for 3 years, 40h/week
- Student status (start date: as soon as possible)
- Ref: I1R-COB-PFN-130PCR

Area: Network analysis for cellular reprogramming

Your Role
The Computational Biology Group seeks a highly-skilled Ph.D. student to work on an exciting project on reconstruction and analysis of an integrated gene regulatory network model to elucidate key mechanisms of cellular reprogramming.

The model will rely on the integration and mining of diverse transcriptomics and epigenomics data of different cell types from the Central Nervous System. The Ph.D. student is expected to collaborate with other members of the CBG to develop a computational methodology aiming at designing, in-silico, cellular reprogramming events, with a focus on the nervous system. This project will be carried out in collaboration with Prof. Noel Buckley’s lab at Kings College London.
