Description

Are you passionate about the mathematics of data science, computational geometry and topology and want to apply your skills to a beautiful biological question?

Come do a PhD with us!

Your project will contribute to the understanding of how boundaries are established and maintained in early heart development.

You will join the collaborative, interdisciplinary environment of the Turing Centre for Living Systems (CENTURI) in Marseille, working within the teams of Paul Villoutreix and Robert Kelly !

Our recent work (see our latest publication in Nature Communications and our jsPCA preprint) highlights some of the exciting biology and quantitative challenges at the core of this project.

The full project description can be found here

And the application process (deadline 28th of January!) can be found there.

If you want to develop new quantitative methods, collaborate across disciplines, and work on an exciting biological problem, we’d love to hear from you!
