    BACKGROUND

    The Boulard and Gross Groups are seeking to recruit a Postdoctoral Fellow with experience in computational biology to lead a project at the interface of epigenetics and neuroscience. The project combines the expertise of the Boulard and Gross groups in chromatin biology and neural circuits, respectively, to explore the cell-type specific interplay between transcription factors and the brain epigenome. The successful applicant will be part of a collaborative team of molecular biologists, biochemists, and neuroscientists that are working together on the large-scale exploration of previously uncharacterized transcription factors in mammalian brains.

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    The successful applicant will devise and carry out computational analyses of large-scale epigenomic and transcriptomic datasets internally generated, including:
    • Developing methods and pipelines to analyze CutnRun and DAP-seq data sets, and
    • Integrating, comparing, mining, and visualizing omic data sets.

    REQUIREMENTS

    • PhD degree in Bioinformatics, Computer Science, Mathematics, or related fields
    • Solid skillset and experience in bioinformatics:
      • Excellent knowledge of R and biostatistics
      • Experience and proven track record in handling NGS datasets and developing analysis pipelines
    • Outstanding interpersonal and communication skills are essential.

    PREFERENCES

    • Experience with Unix-based environment and high-performance computing cluster environment is not required, but would be considered an advantage.
    • Experience in motif discovery is not required, but would be considered an advantage.
