PhD Opportunity in Data Science for Medicine

Human Technopole is looking for a curious, driven, and collaborative PhD candidate to join the Research group lead by Fernanda Pinheiro as part of the EU-funded ENDAMR (Exploring Novel Drivers of Antimicrobial Resistance), a Marie Skłodowska Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Network. This PhD project will develop mechanistic models grounded on microbial physiology to understand how interactions among mutually dependent bacteria influence antibiotic tolerance, community-level perturbations and evolutionary trajectories toward antimicrobial resistance.

Shedding light on the molecular mechanisms of Gabriele-de Vries Syndrome

Using advanced stem cell models, Human Technopole researchers show how mutations in the YY1 gene cause widespread dysregulation of genes crucial for brain development in multiple cell types, leading to structural abnormalities and impaired neuronal function. The results of the research are published in the Nature Portfolio journal Molecular Psychiatry.
