A postdoctoral position is available at the Computational Biology Branch of NCBI, NIH.
We are looking for a highly motivated candidate to study gene regulation in the human and other complex genomes. This work will rely on combining genome data mining, comparative genomics, development of Bayesian inference methods, and population genetics data analysis to work on:
deciphering the semantics of the gene regulatory code
studying evolution of gene regulatory networks
developing novel computational methods to predict tissue-specific regulatory elements
identifying disease-causing mutations within noncoding DNA
Successful candidate must have a Ph.D. and less than 5 years of postdoctoral experience, preferably in computational genomics, bioinformatics, statistics or population genetics.
Please send a copy of your CV and the names of three references to:
