We are always looking for enthusiastic and hard-working students to join us. Currently, the following positions are open:

  • PhD students: should be interested in working at the intersection of algorithms and machine learning. Please watch out for IITGN announcements for PhD applications. Feel free to email anirbandg too. 
  • Junior Research Fellow and Research Associate for the following project on multi-omics analysis for oral cancer. Details are given below. Please fill out this form if interested.

Title of Project:  Multiomics data analysis to demarcate oral cancer and healthy tissue for margin clearance.

Brief description: This project aims to do omics data analysis for establishing molecular signatures to differentiate between healthy and cancer tissue. Intended outcomes of this project include the development of open-source machine learning tools for various regulatory network inference, creation of an India specific omics database as well as open-source tools for integrated pipeline analysis for oral cancer, as well as establishing molecular signatures for a clear demarcation of healthy and cancerous tissue in patients with oral cancer for developing new techniques for surgery.
