Role overview
Mission The Zenk Lab (NeuroNA Chair in Epigenomics of Neurodevelopmental disorders – EpiGN) is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with strong training in computational biology and/or machine learning to join an interdisciplinary project at the interface of single-cell genomics, data integration, and developmental biology.
The project focuses on the integration and analysis of multi-modal single-cell datasets, including scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, scCUT , HiC, and proteomics, with an emphasis on trajectory inference, regulatory dynamics, and cell fate decisions.
A key goal is to integrate multimodal data using machine learning approaches to uncover principles of cellular state transitions.
