The Interfaculty Bioinformatics Unit of the University of Bern is a competence center for "Bioinformatics and Computational Biology" and provides – besides own research projects - expertise to help researchers with the planning, implementation and analysis of next generation sequencing (NGS) experiments. We collaborate on a wide range of projects in the life sciences and biomedical sciences. We run a High Performance Compute cluster used by researchers of UniBe and UniFr and also direct the "MSc in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology". We are in search of a Bioinformatician/Computational Biologist 100%. TasksYour responsibilities will include Primary processing of data from NGS experiments, for example: RNA-seq, whole genome or whole exome resequencing, metagenomics, de novo assembly Improvement and implementation of existing and new analytical pipelines (RNA-seq, scRNA-seq, metagenomics, etc.) Collaborate with researchers on all data analysis steps, in...

The team of Prof. Jessica Bastiaansen is looking for two talented PhD students to develop novel quantitative imaging technology for clinical MRI systems. The candidate will join an exciting interdisciplinary research initiative in active collaboration with Siemens Healthineers (on-site scientists), clinicians from the Department of Interventional and Pediatric Radiology (DIPR), and physicists and engineers from the Translational Imaging Center (TIC) at the SITEM-INSEL. The TIC is an interdisciplinary research environment with state-of-the-art 3T and 7T systems. Clinical translation is furthermore supported by MRI scanner access and established collaborations within the DIPR at the INSEL, one of five Swiss university hospitals. The SITEM-INSEL hosts various research groups, a variety of start-ups, and fosters entrepreneurship. Through collaborations with the AI center (CAIM) and the ARTORG institute, the environment contributes to thriving (bio)medical research activities in the...

Colorectal cancer is a heterogeneous disease with a tumor microenvironment rich in different cell types, densities and frequencies. Tumor budding at the advancing edge of the cancer has been described as an important prognostic and potentially predictive factor, with features of Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), but the characterization of the environment in which it persists has yet to be elucidated. In this project, we investigate the tumor microenvironment of colorectal cancers, using novel microfluidic fluorescence multiplexing technology. In a partnership with Lunaphore technologies (www.lunaphore.ch), we will establish panels of protein markers to characterize this environment and establish analysis pipelines for performing cell phenotyping, spatial analysis and other cellular neighborhood explorations. We aim to combine morphology and protein analysis to achieve a more in-depth phenotypic characterization and translate these into novel insights of colorectal cancer...
