Job Description:
The Linsley Lab at BRI (https://www.benaroyaresearch.org/what-is-bri/scientists-and-laboratories/principal-scientist-labs/linsley-laboratory) is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate. He or she will be responsible for single cell and bulk RNA-seq profiling, and/or flow and mass cytometric studies on immune cell subsets in autoimmune disease and cancer. In particular, our studies focus on auto-antigen-specific T cells that are rare, but believed to have a key role in disease.

The Linsley lab is broadly engaged in basic and applied studies using complex systems theory, high throughput techniques as well as mathematical and computational tools to understand the functioning of the immune system in health and disease. The group works closely with Bioinformaticians and immunologists in many groups at BRI, resulting in a rich environment for quantitative, computational, and laboratory collaborations in immune disease research. Funding is available for two years, contingent upon periodic reviews, with an expectation of extension and expansion.

Requirements:

  • Knowledgeable in modern experimental biological science.
  • Fundamental understanding of the application of statistics to scientific data.
  • Experience with statistical tools (R, SAS, Matlab) and/or scripting or higher level programming languages (Shell, Python, Perl, Java) is a plus.
  • Strong interpersonal, verbal and written communication skills
Education:

Ph.D. degree in bioinformatics, biostatistics, or other life science with a strong understanding of the principals of bioinformatics with 0-3 years’ experience.
