Role Summary

We are looking for a talented and motivated PhD student to join our interdisciplinary team working at the intersection of computational methods and health science, for the SNF‑funded SATURNA (AI for RNA) project. SATURNA is dedicated to decoding the dynamic choreography of RNA to better understand how dynamic processes shape disease states at cellular and molecular scales. The project brings together expertise in artificial intelligence, computational RNA biology, and neuroscience. It is a collaboration between groups at the University of Bern, the Idiap Research Institute, the USI in Lugano, the EPFL in Lausanne, and the National University of Singapore.
