Topic: single-cell omics

Savina Cammalleri discusses extending DISCO, a digital microfluidic platform for single-cell omics, to protein analysis. The work uses controlled handling of individual cells and samples to make proteomic measurements more efficient and scalable. The presentation considers how a flexible microfluidic approach can support studies of variation between cells and the molecular processes underlying that variation. Its goal is to broaden the experimental tools available for biological measurements at single-cell resolution. Cammalleri is a doctoral researcher in biomedical engineering at the Univer

Two research positions investigate why individuals differ in their resilience to brain ageing. Emi Ling’s laboratory combines molecular neurobiology, biochemistry and single-cell omics to identify mechanisms associated with lasting cognitive health. Researchers lead projects, publish findings and mentor junior colleagues. Appointments are annual and renewable after evaluation, with role-specific limits of five years for postdoctoral researchers and seven for research scientists. Applicants need a relevant PhD; the postdoctoral category covers those within five years of their doctorate. Recruit
