Job Description:
We are seeking a highly motivated Scientist to join the Regeneron Genetics Center Functional Modeling group at Tarrytown, NY. Our ideal candidate should have a strong expertise in multiple fields of study, included molecular and cellular biology, genetics and bioinformatics. The preferred candidate will be responsible of designing and executing interdisciplinary research projects using a wide breadth of experimental and bioinformatics tecniques aiming at exploring the genetic basis of human diseases as well as modeling disease-associated variant alleles.The scientist will be expected to support both ongoing projects and to initiate new avenues of research.The position will require coordination and collaboration with other scientists within the department, research and clinical scientists at Regeneron, and external collaborators. Responsibilities: Design and conduct experiments that will adopt state-of-the-art technologies, and provide advanced data analysis as well as trouble shooting under minimal supervision Broad experience in molecular and cellular biology, genomics and bioinformatics is essential Analyze proprietary and public profiling data to support specific genetic findings This position will require wet as well as dry bench work Requirements: This position requires a minimum of a PhD in a related field, and preferably 3+ years postdoctoral experience in the field of molecular biology, genetics, functional genomics, bioinformatics or related field. It is essential that the successful candidate enjoys both wet and dry bench science. Additional requirements include, but are not limited to: Experience in applying state of the art molecular and cellular biology techniques Expertise in performing routine culturing of mammalian tissue culture cells Experience with a variety of functional genomics platforms such as microarray and NGS, and their data analysis best practices Keen interest in learning cutting-edge algorithms to computationally model human disease and gene networks Familiarity with bioinformatics tools and software such as R/Matlab, Linux, Perl, Java Experience in confocal microscopy is not required, but it is a plus Strong publication record Level will be commensurate with experience. This position will require the individual to pass a physical before beginning employment.

To all agencies: Please, no phone calls or emails to any employee of Regeneron or the Regeneron Genetics Center about this opening. All resumes submitted by search firms/employment agencies to any employee at Regeneron or the Regeneron Genetics Center via-email, the internet or in any form and/or method will be deemed the sole property of the Regeneron Genetics Center, unless such search firms/employment agencies were engaged by Regeneron or the Regeneron Genetics Center for this position and a valid agreement with either Regeneron or the Regeneron Genetics Center is in place. In the event a candidate who was submitted outside of the Regeneron or Regeneron Genetics Center agency engagement process is hired, no fee or payment of any kind will be paid. The Regeneron Genetics Center is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company organized to collaborate with health systems and research groups to elucidate, on a large scale, genetic factors that cause or influence a range of human diseases. Building upon Regeneron's strengths in mouse genetics and genetics-driven drug discovery and development, the Center will specialize in ultra-high-throughput exome sequencing and computational biology; discovery of genotype-phenotype associations through linkage to well-annotated de-identified patient electronic medical records; and validation of discoveries using Regeneron's VelociGene® technology. Our interests encompass a breadth of different areas such as Mendelian and family frameworks, large-scale population genetics (both common and rare variants), and gene-gene interactions. Program goals include target discovery, indication discovery, and patient-disease stratification. Objectives include advancing basic science around the world through public sharing of discoveries, providing clinically-valuable insights to physicians and patients of collaborating health-care systems, and identifying novel targets for drug development.
