We will have three postdoc positions at the universities of Padova and Torino, starting in January/March 2024. The positions are aimed at young researchers with a background in computational and/or biological sciences, to work in two projects at the crossroads between population genomics and complex trait analysis.

The new researchers will be involved in two projects recently funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research under the PRIN program. Both projects will involve the analysis of Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging scans from public international datasets such as the UK Biobank and the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study. The hired researchers will extract and analyze quantitative morphological phenotypes from these images and possibly enhance current extraction methods also through machine learning techniques.

The Li Bioinformatics and Computational Genomics Lab (dllab.org) is seeking outstanding Postdoctoral Associates in genomic sequencing data analyses and pipeline development to join our new lab and planned new Center for Genomic Medicine

We are running a multi-omics study to unravel mechanisms underlying regulation of lipid, glucose and inflammatory metabolism in cardiovascular, metabolic, gastrointestinal disorders and inflammatory diseases in women. We will look at several clinical phenotypes and omics types collected longitudinally.
