Job Description:
A post-doctoral or research scientist position is available for an enthusiastic, hard-working individual to conduct research into the transcriptomic and epigenomic (single cell & bulk RNAseq, ATACseq & ChIPseq) analysis of immune cells in mouse and human cancer and autoimmune microenvironments (Nature 2013, 501:252; Immunity 2016, 44:316; Science Immunology 2017, 2:eaah4569; Cell 2017, 169:1130). This position will focus on high impact mechanistic understanding and computational analysis of the pathways and processes under investigation. Candidates will both lead their own systems immunology projects, and work extensively and collaboratively with other members of the lab. Candidates will develop a deep understanding of systems immunology using datasets obtained from human and mouse model samples, with emphasis on cancer and autoimmune disease. Candidate will also gain experience in writing and giving presentations. PI is open to discussion about the possibility of pursuing dual wet-lab/computational projects. Duties will include training of graduate and post-doctoral researchers, participation in department activities, presentations at Vignali lab meetings and any other assignments that the PI may request. Qualifications: Candidates should have a PhD in computational biology or equivalent, and a basic understanding or broad appreciation for cancer immunology and/or basic immunology. Candidates should also be proficient in R and C++. Training grant eligible candidates (US citizens and greed card holders) are strongly encouraged to apply.
