Job Description

**Job Description**

**Field of Research:**

Computational biology/bioinformatics with emphasis on spatial transcriptomics, proteomics, and immunosequencing using Pixel‑seq and an immune receptor‑focused multimodal expansion (“ImmunoPixel‑seq”). Work includes NGS data processing, spatial barcode mapping, single‑cell & spatial analysis, and cell segmentation in brain, tumor, and other tissues.

**Purpose of the Research project(s):**

To build and operate robust, reproducible pipelines that transform raw sequencing + barcode map into high‑quality, spatially resolved single‑cell datasets; to deliver disease‑focused analyses that advance mechanistic discovery and translational hypotheses (e.g., tumor microenvironment, neuroanatomical circuits).

**Duties and Responsibilities:**

End‑to‑end data processing (BCL/FASTQ → QC → counts) – 20%
Demultiplexing, adapter/quality trimming, UMI handling, alignment/quantification; generation of MultiQC...
