Bioinformaticians / computational biologists

The newly established Single-Cell Analysis Unit in the Kollias lab at the Biomedical Sciences Research Center ‘Alexander Fleming’ is looking for highly motivated bioinformaticians or computational biologists to join its team.

Team members will have the opportunity to implement state-of-the-art analysis methodologies for multi-omic single-cell Next Generation Sequencing experiments (10x Genomics Technologies: e.g. single-cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, SNV, spatial transcriptomics, etc) and get involved in research projects that aim to decipher complex biological processes related to single-cell pathology.

Applicants should have basic skills in programming (R or Python) and statistics. Experience in the analysis of Next Generation Sequencing data will be considered a significant advantage.

The candidates should hold a BSc degree in Computer Science or related fields (e.g. Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, etc) or/and an MSc degree in Bioinformatics or related fields (e.g. Computational Biology, Biostatistics, etc). Additionally, applicants should have good communication skills to help provide support both to members of the Single-Cell Analysis Unit team as well as internal and external users.

Expressions of interest should be sent to Dr. Dimitris Konstantopoulos, Head of the new Unit, at konstantopoulos@fleming.gr . Candidates should include a curriculum vitae, a short letter outlining the candidate's interests and expertise (max. 1 page), and also the contact information of at least two referees.
