Job description

  • We are seeking a Bioinformatician to join our cross-functional team and provide advanced bioinformatics support for studies of age-related diseases.
  • The successful candidate will use a variety of omics data to test and refine biological hypotheses in coordination with wet-lab and computational colleagues.


Key responsibilities include:

  • Upstream processing of omics data (QC, normalization, exploratory data analysis).
  • Downstream processing of bulk, single-cell, and/or spatial transcriptomic data (e.g., cell type annotation, differential gene expression analysis, gene set enrichment analysis, results visualization).
  • Additional responsibilities may include analysis of proteomics or other data modalities depending upon project needs.


Qualifications:

  • PhD in Bioinformatics, Genetics, Molecular and Cellular Biology, or related field or MS with at least 6 years of experience.
  • Single-cell and/or spatial transcriptome QC and analysis (e.g., with Seurat or Scanpy)
  • Bulk RNAseq data processing and analysis
  • Applicants should be familiar with high-performance computing systems, shell scripting in a Linux environment, and have strong facility with R and/or Python, including relevant bioinformatics packages (e.g., Seurat, edgeR/limma).
  • Those with experience integrating multi-modal data (e.g., scRNAseq + scATACseq, spatial RNAseq + spatial proteomics) are especially encouraged to apply.
  • A background in human disease biology is helpful but not required.
