Looking for a post-doc researcher!

cGEM project is looking for a bright post-doc for the position of Research Fellow of Computational and Medical Genomics! 

We are looking for a motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow with a PhD in computational genetics, bioinformatics or related fields who is interested in being part of the cGEM research group (supervisors Tõnis Org, Georgi Hudjašov, Irene Gallego Romero and Anders Eriksson). The postdoc’s work will focus on understanding genetic adaptations to environmental and cultural changes in human populations of West Eurasia during the last 20,000 years, a time period that covers major shifts in climate, diet and pathogen exposures in this region. The main aim of the project is to investigate how recent genetic evolution has shaped variation in the immune system and inflammation signalling and the way these systems interact with environmental factors such as biomolecules from food, pathogens and modern artificial substances.
