Join a place where ambitious science thrives

Human Technopole (Milan) is a rapidly expanding life science institute where international researchers and cutting-edge technologies converge to accelerate biomedical discovery. Our mission is to transform bold scientific ideas into advances that improve human health.

Within this mission, the Sottoriva Group aims to measure the evolutionary process in human cancers and model systems, predict the future course of the disease and uncover the mechanisms of drug resistance. By using a combination of spatial and longitudinal data from patients and patient-derived model systems, evolutionary theory, and advanced machine learning techniques, we ultimately aim to outpace cancer progression and dismantle its resistance to treatment.

Project Overview

Our lab has secured a prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant to fund “DARC MATTER” (101125077),



our project aimed at studying currently unknown dynamics and mechanisms of drug resistance in colorectal cancer. DARC MATTER is a five-year project, on-going since January 2024, that generates comprehensive longitudinal, single cell and multi-omics data of patient-derived organoid models under the evolutionary pressure of cancer drugs in different sequences, offering an unparalleled opportunity for measuring cancer biology.

We are seeking looking for a highly motivated Technician to play a key role in the DARC MATTER project as a maternity cover. The selected Research Technician will help to generate the project’s data, leveraging their expertise to culture and manipulate patient-derived 3D organoids. The Research Technician will profile organoid lines using genomic techniques, including single-cell sequencing, and perform drug response measurements.

As an integral member of the project team, the Research Technician will drive the project forward with their experimental work, together with a co
