Job Description:
The Carter Lab at The Jackson Laboratory is seeking a Bioinformatics Analyst in computational genetics and systems biology. Our group (www.jax.org/research-and-faculty/research-labs/the-carter-lab) is developing novel computational methods to derive biological models from large-scale genomic data. The strategies we pursue involve combining statistical genetics concepts such as epistasis and pleiotropy to understand how many genetic and environmental factors combine to control disease-related processes in animal models and human studies. We are especially interested in dissecting the genetic complexity of autoimmune disease, neuro-degeneration, and cancer. Required Skills:
