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.
We’re seeking someone with a background in bioinformatics, data science, computer science, or applied mathematics who is excited about applying computational tools to advance biomedical research.
Location: Milan, Italy
Duration: 3 years, fully funded (Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions)
Human Technopole has presented 102 research projects that were the first to benefit from the cutting-edge equipment of the National Facilities — the advanced technologies that the Institute makes available to external researchers from across Italy. The majority of studies focus on cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, accounting for 50% of the selected projects. The announcement was made this morning in Milan during “Open HT – The Open Day on Life Sciences”, an event designed to showcase Human Technopole’s achievements and outline future goals.
Human Technopole is offering up to 10 fully funded PhD scholarships through the SEMM PhD Program in Systems Medicine. These scholarships are open to talented and motivated graduates—both from Italy and abroad – interested in pursuing doctoral research.
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.
Human Technopole is offering 2 fully funded 4-year PhD fellowships to young scientists from the national and international community who wish to undertake a doctoral degree on a project focused on Computational Biology.
A study from Human Technopole, the University of Milano-Bicocca and Università di Milano reveals new details about how thyroxine – the primary form of thyroid hormone in the blood – is formed, shedding light on a mechanism involving a specific type of amino acid in the thyroglobulin protein. The findings are published in The Journal of Biochemistry and highlighted with the journal’s cover.
