Postdoctoral Position in Computational Genomics, Machine Learning & Single-Cell Biology

Mission

The Zenk Lab (NeuroNA Chair in Epigenomics of Neurodevelopmental disorders – EpiGN) is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with strong training in computational biology and/or machine learning to join an interdisciplinary project at the interface of single-cell genomics, data integration, and developmental biology.

The project focuses on the integration and analysis of multi-modal single-cell datasets, including scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, scCUT&Tag, HiC, and proteomics, with an emphasis on trajectory inference, regulatory dynamics, and cell fate decisions.

A key goal is to integrate multimodal data using machine learning approaches to uncover principles of cellular state transitions.

The work will be carried out in close collaboration with other labs at EPFL, offering a uniquely rich environment combining experimental biology and computational genomics.
