The Prometeo 2016 project “The Next Systems Biology: development of statistical methods for the biology of multiomic systems”

It is a project of excellence funded by the Valencian Government in Spain. This is a multidisciplinary project between the Genomics of Gene Expression group (Dr. Ana Conesa Cegarra) and the Gene Expression and RNA metabolism group (Dr. Susana Rodríguez-Navarro) from the Centro de Investigación Príncipe (CIPF), and the Multivariate Statistical Engineering Group (Dr. Alberto Ferrer-Riquelme) from the Technical University of Valencia (UPV). The goal of this project is to generate statistical methods for the multiomics analysis. For this, histone ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, GRO-seq and PAR-CLIP data will be generated in a yeast model.
Within this project a three-year pre-doctoral contract is offered to develop a thesis in multivariate statistical models for the integration of omic data. The PhD thesis will be co-supervised by Dr. Ana Conesa (CIPF) and Dr. Alberto Ferrer (UPV). The candidate will join the Genomics of Gene Expression group at the CIPF and will also be linked to the Multivariate Statistical Engineering Group at the UPV. The candidate must be enrolled in the PhD program in Statistics and Optimization of the UPV.
