Job Description:
A postdoctoral position is available in the Schizophrenia Center at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. The center seeks a talented and highly motivated Bioinformatician/Biostatician to pursue translational/clinical research projects, including a) first episode psychosis project, and b) chronic schizophrenia and mood disorder project. Primary purposes include 1) to identify biomarker candidates, and 2) to generate hypotheses for patho-physiology of psychiatric disorders. http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/psychiatry/specialty_areas/schizophrenia/ A successful candidate will ● work with interdisciplinary teams including clinical, neuropsychological, neuroimaging, electrophysiological, behavioral, molecular scientists ● analyze high-dimensional data including molecular profiling data (microarray, RNA-seq, and multiplexed immunoassay data), brain imaging data [anatomical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), functional connectivity MRI, and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) data], and genomics data (array-based genotyping and re-sequencing data) ● integrate data across clinical and molecular data layers ● develop clinical databases and their web-based systems in concert with members of participant recruitment sub-team ● lead members of data analysis team ● be co-mentored by experts in the center, including Drs. Pevsner, Barker, Mori and Leek under the guidance of Dr. Akira Sawa. Qualifications (Education, Experience and Skills) ● A PhD in bioinformatics, biostatistics, computational biology or similar field. ● Broad analysis experience of molecular profiling data (microarray, RNA-seq, and multiplexed immunoassay), brain imaging data (anatomical MRI, functional connectivity MRI, and MRS), or genomics data (array-based genotyping and re-sequencing), supported by strong publication ● Experience of statistical design and analysis of clinical studies in the field of psychiatric disorders, supported by strong publication ● Excellent programming skills in Python, Java, or other languages ● Expertise in one or more of the following statistical software: R, SAS, Matlab ● Experience of web-based database development using Javascript, CGI script, SQL DB (e.g., mySQL), and NoSQL (e.g., mongo DB) ● Ability to work collaboratively with members ● A understanding of pre-clinical biology and pharmacology is a plus Contact: Akira Sawa, MD, PhD.
