The role
We are hiring an excellent postdoctoral professional who will play a relevant role in computational at the lab. This is one of two computational genomics positions currently advertised by the group. This position is intended to develop a project that uses statistical analysis of single cell epigenomic data to understand the role of noncoding variants underlying disease.
About the lab
The Regulatory Genomics and Diabetes lab aims to uncover genetic mechanisms causing diabetes mellitus, and to develop translational applications. The group is particularly interested in understanding how genomic information is used to program gene expression in the developing and adult pancreatic beta cells, as well as in identifying regulatory defects underlying disease.
It is a highly multidisciplinary team, with expertise in the analysis of mutant stem cell-derived beta cell organoids and mice, single cell epigenomics, genetic screening, statistical genetics and integrative analyses. It is funded by European Research Council, the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation, the Generalitat de Catalunya CERCA program, an AXA chair, European Foundation for the Study of Diabetes, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions program, and the CIBERDEM diabetes network.
Selected recent work from the lab:
- Disruption of a gene transcription and splicing hierarchy in type 2 diabetes. In review.
- Large-scale discovery of molecular targets for precision treatment of HNF1A-deficient diabetes. In review.
- Transcription regulation by long non-coding RNAs and its disease relevance. Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol, 2024
