PhD/Postdoc position in computational biology to elucidate NR2F1 dosage dependent regulatory networks in health and disease (m/f/d)

Universitätsklinikum Heidelberg • Heidelberg, Baden-Württemberg • Posted July 15, 2026

About the Role

  • Establish computational pipelines for the analysis and integration of single-cell multi-omics data (scRNA-seq, scATAC-seq, Multiome) to reconstruct gene regulatory networks in 3D forebrain dorsal organoids to determine pathophysiological consequences of aberrant NR2F1 dosage

  • Design and build an interactive, open-access web platform for visualization and usage of multi-omics datasets

  • Integrate newly generated data with in-house and publicly available datasets to interpret results in a robust biological context

  • Ensure reproducibility, data management, and documentation of computational workflows in high-performance computing environments

  • Collaborate closely with experts in computational biology across the university and affiliated institutes, as well as with experimental researchers (wet lab) in the AG Laugsch, to support accurate data interpretation and integration

  • Maintain clear documentation of analyses and computational ...
