Postdoctoral in Generative Models of
vor 2 Monaten
The group of Dr. Guillaume Diss at the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research (FMI) aims to study the genetic architecture of protein function — specifically, how the sequence of a protein determines its function.
Recent advances in artificial intelligence and generative biology have paved the way for such developments. However, training deep-learning models to predict affinity from sequence requires vast amounts of data that capture the wide and complex genetic landscape of protein-protein interaction affinity.
Our lab has developed and optimized a deep mutational scanning approach, deepPCA, which allows us to quantitatively measure the affinity of millions of interactions variants. **We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to leverage this rich dataset and train the next generation of generative models capable of predicting protein-protein interaction affinity from sequence data.**
**In this role, you will**:
- Lead independent research projects.
- Collaborate with other team members and work closely with the Zenke lab (our experts in AI) and the Computational Biology facility to analyze the data generated and develop thermodynamically-inspired deep-learning models.
- Contribute to scientific publications in peer-reviewed journals.
**About you**
- You hold a PhD in Biology, Physics, Computational Sciences, or a related field.
- You have experience in deep learning and a solid background in biophysics and thermodynamics.
- You have a strong publication record.
- You can communicate clearly and effectively in English and enjoy working collaboratively in a team.
**What we offer**
- A competitive compensation and benefit package.
- Opportunities to participate in workshops and training sessions to learn new techniques.
- Access to state-of-the-art facilities in computational biology, mathematical modelling, genomics, proteomics, structural biology, microscopy, and more.
- A vibrant, international, and multidisciplinary environment that strives to be inclusive to people from diverse backgrounds.
- A friendly, supportive and competent team.
- A motivation letter
- Your CV
- The names and contact details of 3 referees
