As part of the Department of Biomedicine, the Skin Biology Laboratory (Prof. A. Navarini) is looking for a PhD student to study the mechanisms of chronic skin diseases. We have recently developed human epidermal organoids, a 3D epidermis model, to recapitulate the biology and functions of human epidermis. This innovative model allows us to study in vitro the impact of defective genes or inflammatory conditions on the structure and physiology of the epidermis as it may occur in patients.
