Bern, Schweiz Universität Bern Universität Bern Vollzeit

**PhD position in Cancer Biology**
**100%**:
The Institute of Anatomy of the University of Bern is part of the Faculty of Medicine and has a teaching assignment in the study programmes of Human Medicine and Dentistry, as well as Pharmaceutical Sciences, Biomedical Engineering, and Veterinary Medicine. Eleven independent but highly cooperative working groups conduct biomedical research in the fields of Didactic Morphology, Developmental Biology and Regeneration, Immunobiology, Lung Biology, Mucociliary Clearance, Micro(angio)-CT, Microscopic Anatomy and Structural Biology, Molecular Neuroinfectiology, Nanotechnology, Angiogenesis and Cancer.

The group of Nadia Mercader studies the cellular and molecular mechanisms of heart development and regeneration. Using the zebrafish model and combining genetic manipulations with omic approaches, we investigate how cardiomyocyte proliferation is influenced by different cell types including fibroblasts and macrophages and how cardiac precursor cells acquire cell fate identity during development.
The group is located at the Institute of Anatomy, within the Medical faculty of the University of Bern. It is also embedded into the Cardiovascular research Cluster that includes several groups working at the University of Bern and University Hospital Inselspital. The Mercader group also has an affiliation to the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares CNIC.

Tasks

We are offering a PhD position, starting in spring 2023 or upon agreement, in the field of cancer biology in the group of Prof. Nadia Mercader, in the Institute of Anatomy at the University of Bern, Switzerland and co supervised by Dr. Ines Marques. The project will be held in collaboration with Dr. med. Corina Kim-Fuchs from the Inselspital and PD. Dr. Ilaria Marinoni from the Institute of Pathology. The PhD project aims to co-develop in vitro and in vivo models to study patient derived neuroendocrine tumors of the gastrointestinal tract in the context of precision medicine.
