About us...
The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) is an interdisciplinary research centre of the University of Luxembourg. We conduct fundamental and translational research in the field of Systems Biology and Biomedicine - in the lab, in the clinic and in silico. We focus on neurodegenerative processes and are especially interested in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease and their contributing factors.
The LCSB recruits talented scientists from various disciplines: computer scientists, mathematicians, biologists, chemists, engineers, physicists and clinicians from more than 50 countries currently work at the LCSB. We excel because we are truly interdisciplinary and together we contribute to science and society.
Your Role...
We seek a highly motivated bioinformatician or biostatistician who is well versed in the statistical and machine learning analysis of biomedical data and bioscientific programming for a project on the study of neurodegenerative diseases. The candidate should have experience in the analysis of large-scale biomedical data (omics, clinical, imaging, or other large biological datasets), using statistical methods, pathway/network analysis or machine learning/artificial intelligence. The candidate will conduct integrative analyses of biomedical datasets, focusing on omics and clinical data to predict clinical outcomes of interest (e.g., disease progression scores). This will include implementing and applying software analysis pipelines and interpreting disease-related data together with experimental and clinical collaborators. Classification models guided by prior mechanistic knowledge will be built, exploiting the known grouping structures among features in the omics data, using dedicated structured learning algorithms. With the help of statistics, machine learning and pathway- and network- and analyses, the goal is to improve the mechanistic understanding of disease-associated alterations in neurological disorders.
