A fully funded PhD scholarship is available at the Centre for Cancer Biology, Adelaide University, Australia for a candidate with the skills, interest and motivation to work on this project. The scholarship is open to both domestic and international applicants.
Adelaide University is looking for someone with a background in bioinformatics, computational biology, machine learning, statistics or a related field. Coding skills, such as in R or Python, are essential.
Our work has shown that large genomic changes in cancers, such as gains and losses of chromosomes, better predict how tumours respond to drugs than gene mutations. Detecting them currently requires genomic profiling, which is not routine in most clinics. This project investigates whether machine learning can predict them directly from routine pathology slides, thereby opening new pathways to improve diagnosis and treatment selection for cancer patients.
Expressions of Interest close 30 September 2026 (Australian Central Standard Time).

Dr Ujjaini Dasgupta’s group is looking for highly motivated students with PhD in Chemical/Biological Sciences for the position of Project Scientist I (ICMR funded Project) at Koita Centre for Digital Health-Ashoka, Trivedi School of Biosciences, Ashoka University, Sonipat.
The Project Scientist will build a cancer biology program using multi-omics platforms.
Two (2) positions are available
Dr Dasgupta’s group has expertise in cancer biology, with a research focus on the modulations in the tissue microenvironment in non-communicable chronic diseases including cancer. Her group applies multi-omics approaches to uncover how lipid and glycolipid metabolism influences disease progression and response to therapy. They also work on identifying liquid biopsy-based lipid biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of chronic and oncological diseases, in close collaboration with clinicians.
