Job Description:
A post-doctoral Research Fellow opportunity is currently available in Dr. Alexej Abyzov's lab in the Department of Health Sciences Research at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Research will be purely computational and focus on one of the following main fields of computational biology of the candidate's choice: population/personal human omics, cancer omics, single cell and somatic omics, and the analysis of next-generation sequencing data. Specific sub-areas of interest are discovery, annotation, and the functional annotation of human genomic variants such as SNPs, SNVs, indels, structural variations, retrotransposition, etc. The ideal applicant will have a Ph.D. in computational biology or bioinformatics, experience in one of the aforementioned research areas, demonstrate a record of peer-reviewed publications, and possess motivation for independent research. He or she should have a very strong understanding of biology and be skilled in programming and using computers to solve problems (e.g., experience with C/C++, Java, Python/Perl, R/ROOT, etc.). Oral and written proficiency in English is also a big plus. To learn more about Dr. Abyzov's program, please visit: http://www.mayo.edu/research/faculty/abyzov-alexej-ph-d/bio-20089449 . A Research Fellow at Mayo Clinic is a temporary position intended to provide training and education in research. Individuals will train in the research program of a Mayo Clinic principal investigator. Qualified individuals will demonstrate the potential for research as evidenced by their training and peer-reviewed publications and should become competitive for national research grants. Proof of English proficiency is required for J-1 Short-Term Scholars, Research Scholars, Professors, Specialists, and Student Interns sponsored by Mayo Clinic. 800146; J2WRTP Qualifications: Must have a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent doctoral degree in a field deemed relevant by the program.
