Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Bioinformatics / Image Analysis

The Institut Pasteur de São Paulo seeks a postdoctoral fellow to establish and apply Cell Painting, a high-dimensional image-based morphological profiling assay, to identify how Brazilian natural compounds act against intracellular bacteria. The researcher will combine high-content fluorescence microscopy with image, data and bioinformatics analysis in a host-directed therapeutics project supported by FAPESP.

Applicants must hold a PhD in bioinformatics, microbiology, pharmacology, cell biology or a related field and must have prior experience in data analysis, bioinformatics or informatics, or large-volume data curation. Experience with fluorescence microscopy, microbiology or parasitology, cell biology and in vitro drug testing is desirable.
