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 Structural Proteomics Unit studies protein structure and interactions using advanced mass spectrometry–based proteomics, with a strong focus on crosslinking MS and high-throughput workflows, including single-cell proteomics. It operates state-of-the-art instrumentation and advanced data analysis pipelines within the multidisciplinary ecosystem of Human Technopole. the Proteomics Specialist will report to the Unit Manager and collaborate closely with National Facilities and research groups. The focus of the Proteomics Specialist will be to support high throughput proteomics of cell lines, organoids, tissues and biofluids,
together with the other members of the team.
