Job Description:
Multiple positions are available, in the following areas:
(1) single nucleotide variant analysis
(2) copy number analysis
(3) structural variation analysis (rearrangements and transposable elements)
(4) 3D chromatin organization
(5) ChIP-seq analysis (50/50 split between methods development and collaborative work).
We are part of major new research projects including the 4D Nucleome and the Brain Somatic Mosaicism Network, which will generate a large amount of 3D chromatin and single cell exome/whole-genome data. The successful candidate will join a group of friendly and productive computational biologists in the Department of Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School and have an opportunity to work with world-class biologists in the Harvard medical area. Recent work from the group includes analysis of massive datasets for biological insights, e.g., Lee et al, Science, 2012; Yang et al, Cell, 2013; Kim et al, Cell, 2013; Davoli et al, Cell, 2013; Ho et al, Nature, 2014; Lodato, Science, 2015. An ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. in computational biology/bioinformatics/computer science or another quantitative field as well as excellent programming and communication skills. Substantial experience in analysis of high-throughput sequencing data is highly desirable. We are particularly interested in hiring at least one fellow with a rigorous statistical background. Those with an outstanding record in a quantitative field without significant exposure to biology may also be considered. Exceptional bioinformaticians with interests not specifically mentioned above are also encouraged to apply.
