PhD in Quantitative Biology of Development and Aging
Your profile
You should own a MSc degree, or equivalent, in biology, bioengineering, bioinformatics, or related fields. The projects will combine experimental and computational approaches. Previous experience in programming is not required and can be acquired during the project through courses, self-study, and individual mentoring. Conversely, students with a background in quantitative sciences (e.g. physics or computer science) with a strong interest in learning wet lab biology will also be considered. Foremost, you will require enthusiasm for cross-disciplinary research and pro-activity in learning new skills.
We offer
We are a young and international team that collaborates tightly across disciplines. You will work with researchers from diverse fields: from molecular and evolution biology to computer science and mathematics. You will have access to state-of-the-art equipment, including advanced fluorescence microscopes and a GPU cluster for data and image analysis by AI. Our PhD students are embedded in a graduate school (GCB) and the EMBO young investigator program, granting access to extensive training opportunities, including international workshops and conferences, individual mentoring, and ample networking opportunities for career development. Bern is located in the heart of Switzerland one hour from major alpine resorts.
