Qualifications:

Successful candidates will conduct research in a dynamic and a highly collaborative environment. The research will involve development of novel computational methods for analysis and integration of large-scale, heterogeneous data sets in order to link epigenetic mechanisms, such as the three-dimensional organization of chromatin, to gene regulation. The developed methods will also be applied to first-hand data produced in collaboration with research groups at the institute.

Requirements:

• Ph.D. with a strong background in Computer Science, Statistics, Machine Learning or Bioinformatics.

• Excellent programming skills in at least one programming language (preferably Python)
