Phd Candidate and Postdoctoral positions in Computational EpigenomicsRWTH Aachen UniversityIZKF Research Group BioinformaticsGermany-Aachen The Bioinformatics Group RWTH Aachen University performs research on computational epigenomic methods. Over the past years, we have developed methods for prediction of cell specific binding sites from DNAse-Seq data (Gusmao et al., Bioinformatics, 2014; Gusmao et al., Nature Methods, 2016) and epigenetic and regulatory networks driving cell differentiation via integrative analysis of ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq data (Allhoff et al., Bioinformatics, 2015; Lin et al., NAR, 2015).

We invite applicants for Phd Candidate and Postdoctoral positions in Computational Epigenomics. Candidates will perform research on methods for analysis of single cell epigenomics as ATAC-Seq, DNAse-seq and ChIP-Seq. These projects will be performed in collaboration with stem cell and medical specialists from the RWTH Aachen University. Applicants should hold a M.Sc. in Bioinformatics, Computer Science or related areas. Experience in the analysis of biological sequences, regulatory genomics and/or machine learning is desirable. The candidate should have solid programming skills (C, Python and R) and acquaintance with Linux. Experience with high performance computing is a plus. The working language of the group is English.

The Bioinformatics Group is supported by the Interdisciplinary Center for Clinical Research Aachen (IZKF) and hosted by the Institute for Biomedical Engineering, Department of Cell Biology, RWTH Aachen University Hospital and the Helmholtz Institute for Biomedical Engineering, RWTH Aachen.Job Information Position Type: Post doc and PhD positions Start Date: ASAP Duration: Full Time Status: openContact InformationRWTH Aachen University
