Description
At the University of Milano-Bicocca, Milan, Italy, we offer a postdoctoral position within the project "Pangenome Informatics: from Theory to Applications" under the supervision of Paola Bonizzoni.
The candidate can apply even if he/she is close to defend the PhD.
For details and application, please visit (call in English and Italian):

Deadline: March 20, 2024 (12 am).
The net salary is approximately EUR 2300 per month. The duration of contract is 12 months, starting from May 2024, but the duration can be extended. 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. 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, graph theory.
Location: the research will take place at the Department of Informatics, Systems and Communications, University of Milano-Bicocca.
