发帖数: 34 | 1 Postdoctoral researcher position in RNA biology and epigenetics
The Long lab (www.longlab.org) at the Weill Medical College of Cornell
University is actively recruiting a Postdoctoral researcher. We are seeking
a highly motivated and creative candidate that can fit in our energic,
interactive and fun lab environment. Experience and training in one or more
of the following areas is recommended: omics, RNA biology, epigenetics, stem
cell, CRISPR, bioinformatics or other related fields.
The Long lab tackles fundamental biological questions at the intersection of
RNA, DNA and protein, with a special interest in how RNA regulates
chromatin. This includes understanding the specificity of epigenetic
repression in stem cell differentiation, high throughput functional
determination of noncoding RNA in cell fate determination, and novel CRISPR
tool development to study RNA and chromatin.
The Long lab was established in the Department of Biochemistry and
Cardiovascular Research Institute of Weill Cornell in August 2021. The lab
is well-funded by generous startup fund, an NIH K99/R00 pathway to
independence award, and an American Heart Association Career Development
Award. The Tri-Institution (Weill Cornell, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer
Center, and Rockefeller University), where the lab is located, provides an
unparalleled combination of world-class faculty, state-of-the-art facilities
, and collaborative research opportunities to the next generation of
scientific leaders.
Applicants are expected to hold a Ph.D. at the start date (negotiable) of
the postdoc position. The ideal candidate will have experience in a wide
range of molecular biology techniques, including cell culture, molecular
cloning, CRISPR techniques, and next-generation sequencing. Computational
skills to analyze omics datasets will be advantageous. We are also looking
for a computational biologist separately that is experienced in
computational analyses of omics data (e.g., RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, etc
.). The candidates are expected to have excellent verbal and written
communication skills.
Weill Cornell offers competitive benefits to postdoc associates. We maintain
a number of apartments for full-time postdoctoral associates and their
families. Renting an apartment outside of Weill Cornell housing can also be
a good option. We also offer other excellent benefits including on-campus
childcare centers and health insurance. Salary will be commensurate with
experience and will adhere to NIH and Cornell institutional guidelines.
To apply: Please send a CV, cover letter, and contact information for three
