Job Description:

The University of Kentucky’s Resource Center for Stable Isotope Resolved Metabolomics seeks a Postdoctoral Scientist in Omics Network Integration. The Center (http://rcsirm.cesb.uky.edu) is an internationally renowned, high-technology, metabolomics resource core that serves the metabolomics needs of researchers nationally, with a focus on stable isotope-resolved metabolomics (SIRM). In addition to serving the at-large scientific community, the Directors of the Center conduct federally-funded, highly translational, metabolism-based research. Candidates should have a multidisciplinary background, preferably with complementary degrees across both biological and computational disciplines such as computer science, mathematics, informatics, biochemistry, molecular or cell biology; at least one degree must be at the Ph.D. level. Candidates should have demonstrated experience with gene regulatory, signal transduction, protein-protein interaction, and/or metabolic networks, especially for analyzing large omics datasets. Candidates with experience with building and analyzing protein-protein interaction networks are of particular interest for this position. Candidates should have strong programming skills in languages like C++, Python, and R, within a Unix/Linux environment. Also, experience with Git version control tools, the Galaxy bioinformatics workflow manager, and graph-based database and visualization tools is highly desirable. This position will provide extensive opportunities to develop skills in metabolomics data analysis and to develop, through biological network models, methods that integrate epigenomics, genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics datasets with metabolomics datasets for systems-level analyses. Salary and benefits are competitive and commensurate with experience. Please send inquiries, curriculum vitae, and contact information for three references to: Dr. Hunter Moseley, hunter.moseley@uky.edu. You may be subsequently contacted to complete a formal application on-line. The University of Kentucky is committed to a policy of providing equal employment opportunities to all candidates regardless of economic or social status and will not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnic origin, national origin, creed, religion, political belief, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, or age.
