    The newly created Institute for Genome Sciences is recruiting for a Bioinformatics Analyst III. The institute was established to support genomic, basic and translational research to improve human health at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and beyond. We intend to accomplish this goal by leveraging a state-of-the-art computational facility, the expertise of our domain experts, computational scientists, engineers, and our partnerships with other universities and organizations.

    RESPONSIBILITIES:
    The selected Bioinformatics Analyst III will contribute to genomic sequencing projects and scientific analysis of the data generated by those projects using a variety of bioinformatics techniques and software applications. Responsibilities include generating, annotating, and analyzing genomic data and preparing the data for further research or publication.

    Specific Responsibilities:
    - Data mining, annotation and analysis activities including: interpreting complex biological information: adding value to basic genomic and proteomic data through targeted data curation; maintaining knowledge of appropriate scientific literature; preparing data and reports for publication and utilization by other scientific staff

    - Public resource development including: collecting and curating primary data of interest, integrating genomic data with diverse data types from external sources; ontology use and development, requirements development, community outreach and training
