Job Skills: Modeling
The Department of Biology at the University of La Verne invites outstanding applicants to apply for the Fletcher Jones Endowed Chair in Computational Biology- a full-time tenured-track or tenure position at the rank of associate or Full Professor. The specific field of expertise in biology is open, although interdisciplinary connections and a health focus is highly desirable. Examples of such interdisciplinary connections could include (but are not limited to) modeling of biological networks, big data analytics, and integration of genomic and health datasets for improvement of public health.

The Harvard FAS Informatics group and Boehringer Ingelheim Pharma (BI) are joining forces on an exciting project to explain the brain circuitry underlying symptom domains of relevance to the central nervous system. The project will build on a substantial body of work already undertaken by BI in collaboration with Circuit Therapeutics to further integrate and interrogate disparate datasets. These datasets range from optogenetics and behavioral phenotyping to single cell manipulation and next generation sequencing [More]
Cancer is a complex, resilient disease. Cancer is also a genomic disease, and the key to understanding and defeating it is understanding the diverse genomic patterns that drive cancer. The first generation of cancer genomics delivered ‘things’ – mutations, amplifications, fusions, expression profiles, etc. We’re looking for an ambitious postdoc to help us understand the next generation of cancer genomics – the patterns of genomic changes that will reveal the molecular strategies used by tumors, and reveal new therapeutic possibilities.

The Precision Medicine Data Scientist role is responsible for modeling complex problems, discovering insights and identifying opportunities through the use of statistical, algorithmic, bio-informatics, data-mining and visualization techniques on large clinical, demographic, and genomic datasets. [More]
The algorithms and data analysis department seeks a talented and motivated individual to provide advanced analytical and software support for product research and development efforts. The successful candidate in this position will work closely with the Data Analysis team to develop analysis methods for genotyping SNPs and other complex variants. Approaches will target genotyping species of non-human organisms, with genomic complexity such as inbreeding, polyploidy, paralogous sequence variation, and subpopulation diversity. [More]
