Job Description:
The successful candidate will be expected to take leadership role in ongoing projects as well as develop new research ideas. Specific duties will include, experimental design, data analysis, interpretation of results, and presentation of findings and preparation of peer reviewed manuscripts. Job Requirements: At a minimum the candidate will be required to have a PhD in the areas of genetics, biology, or computational biology, and have a demonstrated publication record in the area of genomics. We desire a candidate with experience in both experimental and computational approaches, with proficiency in at least one common programing language (preferably Python or R). However, we will accept candidates with only bioinformatics or computational biology expertise. Any candidates with experience in the areas of single cell RNA-sequencing or CRISPR/Cas9 are highly encouraged to apply.
Additional Info:
Our work in IPF is focused on understanding how dysregulated gene expression contributes to disease genesis and response. This work is facilitated by the use of novel single cell RNA-sequencing methods that allows us to identify gene expression signatures associated with the disease at a cell type resolution. Furthermore, we have established a collaboration that includes renowned clinician, researchers and transplant surgeons. Detailed Description Our cancer work largely focuses on multiple myeloma, given our strong institutional expertise (Dr. Jonathan Keats). We are exploring how germline genetic variation associated with changes in gene expression (eQTLs) affect treatment response and overall outcome of patients within the MMRF CoMMpass study. Additionally, we are using large-scale CRIPSR/Cas9 screens to identify genes essential for multiple myeloma survival.[Click Here to Access the Original Job Post]
