    BACKGROUND

    We seek an outstanding postdoctoral scientist to carry out studies on the computational analysis of quantitative protein interaction networks. We use quantitative proteomics approaches to analyze hundreds of multiprotein complexes using affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry (Paoletti et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 103, 18928-18933), and we have developed a probabilistic approach to analyze these datasets (Sardiu et al., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 105, 1454-59.).

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    The new member of our team that fills this position will have a very large dataset to work with to develop new approaches for analyzing protein interaction networks, integrating such information with other large-scale genomic and phenotypic data, and develop their own ideas in a collaborative and invigorating environment. The candidate will work with an interdisciplinary and collaborative team of analytical chemists, protein mass spectrometrists, biochemists, and computer scientists to assemble and interrogate quantitative protein interaction network datasets.

    REQUIREMENTS

    • A Ph.D. in physics, mathematics, computer science, bioinformatics, biochemistry, or a related discipline is required.
    • Experience applying mathematical and quantitative approaches to interrogating biological problems is required.

    PREFERENCES

    • Experience in data mining and integration of large scale datasets and/or experience in analyzing protein interaction networks is preferred but not required.
