Looking for a PhD candidate with life science/ biotechnology background to work on
bleeding edge cancer genomics projects
The Sengupta laboratory (www.debarka.com) at the Departments of Computational Biology of
Computer Science, IIIT-Delhi utilizes high-throughput omics technologies and data science to
understand the molecular characteristics of cancer and the intertwined phenotype conglomerate
of the tumor microenvironment.
Our approach is generally multidisciplinary, combining
computational biology, systems biology, biostatistics, cell, and molecular biology, imaging,
biochemistry, and genomics. In a nutshell, we work at the interaction of basic and translational
cancer biology with genomics, informatics, and machine learning as major work-horses.
Some
notable publications from our group are- Genome Research (2021), Nucleic Acids Research
(2018, 2018b and 2020), Nature Communications (2018), and others. In the coming years, we
want to interrogate cancer evolution using stochastic processes, with augmenting experiments in
lower organisms.
For this, we are looking for a Ph.D. candidate with a life science/
biotechnology background. We seek a highly motivated Ph.D. candidate to join our
enthusiastic, collaborative and diverse team in an outstanding scientific environment to
participate in our exciting research.
