Job Description:
The Bioinformatics Fellowships are unique, semi-autonomous postdoctoral positions at the Research Associate Level that provide informatics training with the goal of mastering the large skill set needed for RNA bioinformatics analysis. Fellows will develop and apply software for the analysis of a variety of RNA sequencing and other experiments to measure: -the abundance of small and long non-coding RNAs. -the diversity of splicing mRNA isoforms in bulk and single cells. -RNA-protein interactions by RIP and CLIP-seq. -the production of nascent RNA transcripts using GRO-seq. -the stability of mRNAs after transcription. -mRNA translation by ribosomal profiling. -in vivo RNA polymerase II distribution. Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications: -Ph.D. in biological or computational discipline, MS candidates will also be considered. Preferred Qualifications: -Preferred expertise in R, Python, or C++. -Working knowledge of computational and molecular biology, and high throughput DNA sequencing data analysis. -Demonstrated ability to teach bioinformatics, computational Biology, and/or genomics courses and workshops.
