Work with MS

One 12-months position available at Univeristy of Torino for postdoctoral or predoctoral researcher (assegno di ricerca) to work on the analysis of archeological samples by mass spectrometry.
There are no requirements on disciplinary background, but hands-on experience with mass spectrometry is essential, preferably with sample extraction and purification and data analysis for proteomics and/or metabolomics.
The successful candidate will work across two research groups at the University of Torino (Prof Beatrice Demarchi/ArchaeoBiomics at the Department of Life Sciences and Systems Biology & Prof Federica Dal Bello/Open Lab Mass Spectrometry at the Department of Molecular Biotechnology and Health Sciences) and will be in charge of an exciting interdisciplinarity project looking at diet and disease in Bronze Age sites (Terramare) led by prof. Claudio Cavazzuti (University of Bologna).
Training and support will be provided and opportunities for professional development within our research groups will be explored.
