Tenure Track Assistant/Associate/Full Professor in BioinformaticsFocus on Single Cell Genomics The University of Texas Southwestern Medical CenterLyda Hill Department of Bioinformatics The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW) has recently launched a fully philanthropically funded Department of Bioinformatics with a scientific focus on the integrative computational analysis and modeling of complex biomedical processes in high-dimensional and multi-modal data sets.

The program is driven under the premise that bioinformatics in its core is a pattern recognition problem whose solution builds on computational theory and algorithms that are sharable across all biomedical data types and research applications.

Accordingly, the Department will have a faculty that tackles fundamental questions in computer science while effectively translating the results into high-impact basic and clinical research.

Further information on the vision for the Department and implementation strategies can be found at http: //www.utsouthwestern.edu/education/medical-school/departments/bioinformatics/index.html
