Job Description:
The research group of prof. Gianluigi Condorelli at National Research Council - University of Milano Bicocca is looking for one or more bioinformatician(s) with specific experience and/or interest in High Throughput data analysis.

The candidate(s) will be mainly in charge of the analysis of Next-Generation sequencing genome and transcriptome datasets for a range of applications and projects in the experimental labs (transcriptomics; mutation detection; ChiP Seq etc), but analyses of other datasets (such as microarray) will be part of the duties.

The scientific focus of the group is on molecular medicine applied to cardiovascular diseases and a rich range of approaches is currently conducted in the experimental labs (1-4).

The correct cultural background (training in Biology / Computer Science / Statistics or a mix of the three) and a strong interest in working in HT data analysis will be considered at the same level of specific experience in the above-mentioned fields.

Good knowledge of Scientific English will be positively evaluated for this position, together with good presentation and teamwork skills.

The salary and type of contract will be commensurated to the candidate\'s skills and professional profile.

A CV with one professional reference, details on educational background and of the biological and/or bioinformatic and/or data analysis skills and experience should be sent by email for a preliminary selection to

Alessandro Guffanti, Bioinformatics, Genomnia: alessandro.guffanti@genomnia.com

Please note that this position is NOT associated with Genomnia, which helps only with the candidate preliminary selection
