We are looking for a Postdoc in Computational Antigen Discovery FACULTY: Faculty of Science DEPARTMENT: Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences HOURS PER WEEK: 36 to 40 APPLICATION DEADLINE: 31 August 2026 LINK FOR APPLICATION: https://www.uu.nl/en/organisation/working-at-utrecht-university/jobs/postdoc... Introduction: At Utrecht University, we have built a specialized team focusing on the discovery of previously unidentified antigens for immunotherapies through mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics and immunopeptidomics. We now seek a highly motivated and experienced Postdoctoral Researcher to join our multidisciplinary research team. Your job As a Postdoctoral Researcher in the group of dr Marino external link, you will play a central role in advancing the group's research through the development and application of state-of-the-art bioinformatics workflows for antigen identification, quantification, and validation. You will support the whole team in data analysis and visualization for different proteogenomics projects. You will organize and merge multi-omics data (in collaboration with our partners at Princess Maxima Center) using AI/ML techniques, implement antigen data analysis and discovery processes, and contribute to the maintenance of data infrastructure in collaboration with internal team members and other multidisciplinary teams. In this role, you will also take the lead in developing new ideas and initiatives that advance the group’s research. This position will significantly impact the team by developing innovative bioinformatics pipelines, and by pinpointing and measuring the most immunogenic antigens for integration into vaccine-based therapies aimed at improving outcomes for patients with cancer. Finally, you will be involved in many different multicentered and multidisciplinary collaborations, with both industry as well as academia and medical institutes. This will increase your exposure and expand your own professional network, supporting your future scientific career.
