Opportunity: Postdoctoral Fellowship in BIOINFORMATICS and STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY--Bethesda, MD (US)
Submitted by Andy Baxevanis; posted on Tuesday, September 28, 2004
DESCRIPTION
A postdoctoral training position is currently available in the Genome Technology Branch (GTB) of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI). The position is located in the laboratory of Andy Baxevanis, Ph.D., whose research focuses on the computational analysis of disease-causing mutations. Current studies utilize sequence- and structure-based techniques to analyze proteins and protein families implicated in genetic disorders, offering the opportunity to interact with laboratory investigators performing family-based studies.
REQUIREMENTS
Candidates should have or be close to obtaining a Ph.D. or equivalent degree in computational biology, computer science, molecular biology, or closely-related field. Candidates with a background in structural biology and/or evolutionary biology are particularly encouraged to apply. Programming skills and experience in the application of computational methods to genomic data are highly desirable. Applicants must possess good communication skills and be fluent in both spoken and written English. The ability to learn how to use new software and quickly become expert in its use, critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and the ability to work semi-independently are required.
LOCALE, FUNDING, AND COMPENSATION
The Intramural Research Program is on the Bethesda campus and offers a wide array of training opportunities for scientists early in their career. The funding for this position is stable and offers the trainee wide latitude in the design and pursuit of their research question. The successful candidate will have access to NHGRI?s established and robust bioinformatics infrastructure, as well as resources made available through NIH?s Center for Information Technology (CIT) and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
