[Job-offers-cs] Postdoctoral position in Bioinformatics @ Univ. Milano-Bicocca

[Pekka Orponen]

At the University of Milano-Bicocca, Milan, Italy, we offer a 
postdoctoral position within the PANGAIA project (see 
https://www.pangenome.eu/>For details and application, please visit 
(call in English and Italian):

https://www.unimib.it/ateneo/gare-e-concorsi/cod-24a196> Deadline: 
September 25, 2024 (12:00).
The gross salary is competitive: 40k€ per year. According to Italian 
Law, that amount is not subject to income tax, but only to retirement funds.

The duration of contract is 12 months, starting in December 2024. The 
research fits the broad area of combinatorial algorithms and mainly 
involves graph algorithms and combinatorial pattern matching. The 
project is focused on the foundations of graph pangenomics and aims to 
solve efficiently some computational problems related to 
sequence-to-graph alignment, graph comparison, and efficient data 
structures for indexing graphs and collection of sequences based on 
formal language properties. The candidate will join a network of 
international collaborations on graph pangenomics (see 
https://www.pangenome.eu/ and will interact with researchers actively 
working in pangenomics. On top of the salary the researcher may receive 
additional salary for research periods abroad. The project includes 
funding for attending conferences. Anyone interested in the broad topics 
of graph algorithms and combinatorial algorithms is welcome to apply. 
The ideal candidate should have an established research record in at 
least one of the following topics: algorithms, data structures, formal 
languages, bioinformatics.

Location: the research will take place at the Department of Informatics, 
Systems and Communications, University of Milano-Bicocca.
