BACKGROUND

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) has built a vibrant program in genomics, with ongoing studies in copy number variation analysis, next-generation sequencing approaches, small RNA biology and gene expression analysis. We are currently recruiting faculty at the Assistant Professor level to join this program as part of the Stanley Institute for Cognitive Genomics at CSHL.

RESPONSIBILITIES

The successful candidate will join faculty at CSHL's Stanley Institute as part of a multidisciplinary effort to identify the genetic causes of psychiatric disorders and to investigate, at the molecular and systems level, how altered genes lead to changes in cognition.

REQUIREMENTS

We are seeking scientists with strong training and experience in developing and applying genomic computational approaches to study schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression. Applicants should have experience analyzing human sequence variation, transcriptional profiles and developing new analytical tools, especially those applying to large multiple data sets.

HOW TO APPLY

To apply for this position, please send a letter of interest, CV, statement of research interests and the names and contact information for three references to:
