ETH Zurich is delighted to offer a PhD position in computational biology. The initial contract for this position is three years. Applications should be submitted as soon as possible.

The duration of the position is three years (with an option to extend for one year) and the position is available from April 2019 (the starting date is negotiable).
The successful candidate should have a strong interest either in animal breeding and genetics, statistical genomics and/or computational biology. The PhD student will be part of a young and dynamic team that enjoys working with big genomic data from animal populations. Applicants should hold a MSc degree in agricultural science, animal science, genetics, computational biology, bioinformatics or related disciplines. Affinity to statistics, bioinformatics and computational genomics is required. The writing of scientific papers and the participation in international conferences requires good knowledge of English.
We offer working in an exciting project carried out in a young and dynamic group at ETH Zurich equipped with excellent computational, lab and experimental animal facilities. Supervision will be close, but allow for independent work. Scientific writing and active participation in national or international scientific conferences is very much encouraged and supported.
