Job Description:
The Human Genome Sequencing Center (HGSC) at Baylor College of Medicine is recruiting a Postdoctoral Associate to carry out genomic and bioinformatics research utilizing next generation sequencing data for discovery of genomics variants that underlie susceptibility to Rhabdomyosarcoma in pediatric patients. This position requires a trained bioinformatician, preferably with experience in genomics and next generation sequencing. We are looking for an enthusiastic, driven team player with excellent written and verbal communication skills. The candidate will interact with laboratory molecular biologists in the study to prioritize mutations for functional validation. There will also be opportunities to contribute to other projects at the HGSC that drive gene discovery in areas of human health and precision medicine in both Mendelian and complex diseases. The appointment will be for 3 years initially with prospects for renewal.
