Le poste

Descriptif du poste

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled computational biologist to join our translational research team working at the interface of immunology, genomics, and intestinal pathology. The successful candidate will investigate the molecular continuum linking between Mendelian, non-Mendelian forms of autoimmune enteropathies and intestinal lymphomas. A particular focus will be on understanding why some patients with celiac disease fail to respond to a gluten-free diet, including those with refractory celiac disease types 1 and 2 (RCD1 and RCD2) and non-responsive celiac disease (NRCD). To achieve this, we use cutting-edge technologies such as single-cell sequencing and long-read RNA sequencing to study individual cells and identify genetic changes that may drive disease progression and treatment resistance.

The recruited scientist will analyze and integrate single-cell multi-omics datasets (including scRNA-seq, CITE-seq, scTCR-seq/VDJ-seq), whole-exome sequencing (WES), and will help develop novel bioinformatic pipelines for long-read RNA sequencing (e.g., Nanopore) generated from 10x Genomics libraries, with a focus on identifying somatic mutations and clonal structures.

She/he will work in close collaboration with the bioinformatics core facility and experimental biologists to perform quality control, multi-modal integration, lineage and trajectory analysis, and mutational mapping in T cells, in the context of disease evolution from inflammation to lymphomagenesis.

This position provides a unique opportunity to contribute to high-impact research at the frontier of autoimmunity and cancer genomics.
