BACKGROUND

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Closely collaborate with multiple researchers to answer biological questions of interest by performing quality control of experimentally generated data, relevant statistical analyses of the processed data, and bioinformatics analyses to refine or interpret the resulting discoveries in the context of third-party knowledge from literature or other public databases.
• Build databases and software infrastructure to load, store, and organize the diverse data sets, associated metadata, and analysis results from the high-throughput assays, in order to facilitate efficient data retrieval and data mining.
• Collaborate with peer computational biologists in the lab, to conduct cutting edge bioinformatics and systems biology research, such as developing novel statistical methods for the analysis and integration of high dimensional data sets to gain biological insight.
• Develop and work with custom hard – and software solutions to accomplish various goals.

REQUIREMENTS

• Ph.D. in computational biology, bioinformatics, systems biology, or relevant disciplines
• 3+ years of hands on research experience with the analysis of high-throughput data sets
• Sound knowledge of statistics and quantitative modeling
• Solid computer programming skills with proficiency in Matlab/R, SQL, and at least one scripting language (Perl/Python/Ruby)
• Proficiency in C/C++ and/or Java and experience with multiple operating system platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux)
