Postdoctoral researcher in Comparative Single-Cell Genomics and Embryonic Gene Regulation

100% / start 1.2.2025 or upon agreement

The 'Laboratory of Regulatory Evolution' (Tschopp Lab) at the Department of Environmental Sciences, University of Basel, is welcoming applications for a fully funded postdoctoral position ().

Your position

The goal of this Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF)-funded project is to investigate the gene regulatory logic of convergent cell fate specification in different parts of the developing vertebrate skeleton, compare it across different vertebrate species and investigate the role of the embryonic tissue environment and the species' habitats at large. You will be analyzing and producing a range of functional single-cell genomics data sets (single-cell RNA-seq, single-cell ATAC-seq single-cell multiome and spatial transcriptomics), EcoEvoDevo experimental settings and evolutionary-comparative studies across species.
(see our preprints at
and )

Your profile

We are looking for a motivated and talented candidate with a PhD degree in Bioinformatics or a related field. Candidates are expected to have a strong background in evolutionary biology and/or comparative functional genomics. Additional experiences in single cell functional genomics analyses, statistics and computational data analyses are a plus, as is an interest in comparative developmental (EvoDevo) questions. We are looking for a collaborative and organized person with good communication skills and the desire to work in an interdisciplinary and international environment. Fluency in spoken and written English is a prerequisite.

We offer you

We offer a dynamic and interactive research environment with state-of-the art research facilities, good research funding and internationally competitive salaries. The initial contract will be for 1 year, and can be extended for a maximum of 3 years (full funding available). The proposed starting date is 1.2.2025, or later upon agreement.
The University of Basel () is the oldest university in Switzerland, located in one of Europe's most important life science hubs at the border between Switzerland, France and Germany. Courses to improve hard and soft skills, as well as career development opportunities are offered by the University.
