Job Description:
The Research Scientist II will work with the Arivale Research Team to computationally identify and validate complex biological associations with diseases, wellness, and behavioral phenotypes using diverse molecular data. This position will involve working primarily with gut microbiome data along with a broad range of phenotype observations including clinical labs, quantified-self data, genomic variants, protein data, metabolite data, and other omics data. Duties and responsibilities include:
Additional Info:
Arivale has launched a new industry based on Scientific Wellness® with a goal to help individuals maximize their wellness and avoid disease. Our scientific co-founder, Dr. Lee Hood, is a pioneer in the study of human genetics and co-inventor of five instruments at the heart of modern genetics. Dr. Hood has also co-founded over a dozen biotech companies, including Amgen, Applied Biosystems, Systemix, Darwin, and Rosetta. We joined Arivale because we are highly optimistic about the potential to make a positive difference in the lives of millions of people.
