Opportunity: Bioinformatician (#401207985) @ Duke University -- Durham, NC (US)
Submitted by Human Resources; posted on Monday, February 06, 2017
BACKGROUND
The Duke Human Vaccine Institute and the Duke Center for HIV/AIDS Vaccine Immunology & Immunogen Discovery (CHAVI-ID), providing national and international leadership in the fight against major infectious diseases such as HIV, influenza, and malaria, are currently recruiting for a highly motivated individual to join our team. The Duke Human Vaccine Institute (DHVI) is an interdisciplinary, interdepartmental institute dedicated to the study of basic and translational science required to understand host-pathogen interactions that can be translated to vaccines against human diseases. DHVI comprises a team of highly interactive investigators that have expertise in mucosal and systemic virology, immunology, molecular biology, microbiology and animal models.
RESPONSIBILITIES
The Bioinformatician will provide specialized bioinformatics solutions, develop and implement innovative computational approaches for the analysis of large sequence datasets generated by next generation sequencing platforms as well as design, implement and test a high-performance computing pipeline for analyzing large-scale transcriptomics. In addition, this position will assist in the structural modeling and analysis of antibody-antigen interactions, implement computational protein design algorithms for improving vaccine immunogen designs, and assist in the creation of a software pipeline and database system for analyzing and cataloging antibody sequences.
REQUIREMENTS
The position requires a Master's degree in bioinformatics, computer science, computational biology, or a related field. A PhD is a plus. A minimum of five years relevant experience is required including experience in a UNIX/Linux environment, the development of computational methods and programs for the analysis of genomic and/or structural data, web-based bioinformatics tools, public domain biological databases and software tools for sequence and structural analysis. Experience with Perl or Python, R or MATLAB, web design, database systems, high performance computing environments, and statistics is also desired. Proficiency in C++ programming is highly preferred.
HOW TO APPLY
Candidates should apply to requisition 401207985 on the Duke employment website and send a cover letter and current CV to:
