In this excellent scientific environment, the Interdisciplinary Research Unit Mathematics and Life Sciences (https://www.mathematics-and-life-sciences.uni-bonn.de/en) develops and applies novel mathematical approaches and software tools for data analysis and modelling. The research unit is led by Prof. Dr. Jan Hasenauer. Applications areas include cancer and immunology (including SARS-CoV-2 research), with an emphasis on high-throughput (single-cell) data. We are intensively collaboration for world leading experts for mathematics and immunology in the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics, ImmunoSensation2, and the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases.
We are happy to offer possibilities to outstanding students and already host one CSC fellow. Currently, we are looking in particular for students which can contributed to our research on
    • statistical analysis of single-cell analysis,
    • bioinformatic analysis and integration of omics data, and
    • computational analysis of multi-parametric imaging data.
Job description:
    • Analysis and interpretation of experimental data (e.g. single-cell and patient data)
    • Development of statistical and machine learning approaches
    • Collaboration with biologists and medical researchers
    • Publication of scientific results at conferences and in journals
Your profile:
