发帖数: 9 | 1 Multiple postdoctoral fellow/visiting scholar positions are available in the
Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University in the group of
Computational Genomics and Evolutionary Medicine (CGEM).
We are:
A young dynamic group studies the nascent and fancy field of genomics and
evolutionary medicine. The research of CGEM group focuses on three areas: (
1) Integrative Network Biology. We integrate multi-scale (phenotypic,
genetic and epigenetic) data from large cohort studies to reconstruct the
human disease maps, and identify genetic mechanisms of obesity, diabetes,
and cancer. (2) Cancer genomics. We use next-generation sequencing
techniques to sequence single-cell human cancer tissues, and model the
evolution of cancer progression. (3) Evolutionary Medicine. We use
phylogenetic and evolutionary methods to predict novel therapeutic targets
of complex human diseases. Finally, group members are also highly
encouraged to develop their own research projects.
You are:
For postdoc positions, a candidate with PhD or MD/PhD degree with trainings
from both biology/biomedicine and quantitative computation (e.g.
computational biology, genetics, evolutionary biology, computer sciences,
etc.). Experience in large-scale data analysis is required and knowledge of
biological networks is a plus. For both type of positions, you should be
energetic, self-motivated with good oral and written communication skills.
How to:
Qualified candidates are invited to email a letter of motivation, CV, and
contact information for 3 references to Dr. Zhi Wang (a*******[email protected]).
