The project involves an interdisciplinary approach combining clinical with pre-clinical research, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation and digital innovation grants.
Your RoleAs a PhD candidate, you will engage in a mechanistic trial adopting multi-dimensional metabolic profiling and apply novel analytical approaches to experimental and clinical data.
You will acquire a variety of methodological and transferable skills through interdisciplinary training and have the opportunity to present your work at international conferences, publish peer-reviewed manuscripts and contribute to outreach activities.
Requirements- A master's degree in life sciences, biomedical sciences, bioengineering, health and technology, biology, pharmacy, medicine, or a related field.
- Strong analytical skills including critical thinking, problem-solving and data literacy.
