RESPONSIBILITIES

A postdoctoral position is immediately available for those candidates with a Ph.D. in computational biology and/or bioinformatics who are interested in gene expression studies. The lab is highly multi-disciplinary, and the successful candidate will have the opportunity to work side-by-side with both wet bench biologists and computational biologists.

REQUIREMENTS

We seek a highly motivated individual with experience in bioinformatics and/or comparative genomics. An ideal candidate should have strong programming skills. Knowledge of biological principles, genomics, microarray analysis, and statistics is a plus. We are particularly interested in applicants with experience in programming, machine learning, and computational biology to join us in developing new methods for integrating and analyzing genomic and epigenomic data that we generate in our laboratory. The ideal candidate will be a recent Ph.D. with an excellent publication record and experience with at least one of the following: high throughput DNA sequence analysis (Solexa or ChIP-seq), biological databases, high throughput data analysis, and developing novel data mining algorithms for large-scale regulatory, metabolic, or protein interaction networks.

LOCALE

The laboratory is located in the NYU School of Medicine in the heart of mid-town Manhattan.

SALARY & COMPENSATION

Competitive salaries and subsidized housing are available.
