About this position

The Laboratory of Elisa Oricchio at the Swiss Institute of Experimental Cancer Research (ISREC), EPFL, is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join research on how cancer-associated genomic alterations shape tumor initiation, progression, and therapy response.

The project centers on understanding the molecular mechanisms that drive tumor evolution by integrating genetic and non-genetic mechanisms. The lab studies how functional consequences of cancer-associated genomic alterations reshape the structure and function of the epigenome, with a particular emphasis on chromatin 3D organization and its role in tumor development.

Work in the lab also explores how specific genomic alterations reprogram communication between cancer cells and immune cells, linking epigenetic remodeling with the tumor microenvironment and response to treatment. The position offers the chance to contribute to and expand these research directions within a vibrant cancer research environment.

The Oricchio lab is part of the Swiss Cancer Center Leman and is based on the EPFL main campus, providing access to an active interdisciplinary research community.

Funding details

Salary according to EPFL standards; candidates are encouraged to apply for individual fellowships.

What's required

Applicants should have a strong background in cancer biology, genetics, and epigenetics, with a proven track record of scientific excellence demonstrated through high-quality publications. A strong motivation and exceptional dedication and work ethic are essential. Prior experience with animal models, 3D culture systems, and/or computational analyses will be an advantage.

How to apply

Submit a single PDF application by the EPFL careers portal. Include a cover letter outlining your research interests, relevant experience, motivation, and a possible project. Attach a detailed CV with full publications and the names and contact details of at least two referees.
