Utilizing their bioinformatics skills, the fellow will drive innovation in understanding and developing new treatments for diseases.
Roles and Responsibilities:
- Perform advanced single-cell analyses to identify distinct cell phenotypes and interactions, elucidating the transcriptomic landscape that drives tumor progression and responses to treatments.
- Execute epigenetic analyses and integrate these with single-cell data to provide comprehensive insights.
- Develop and implement pipelines for integrative multi-omics analysis that merge various data types (genomic, transcriptomic, epigenetic, etc.). This aids in a complete understanding of biological systems and disease mechanisms.
- Work collaboratively with an interdisciplinary team of biologists, clinicians, and computational scientists to contextualize findings within complex disease landscapes.
- Manage data curation and ensure the integrity and accessibility of datasets.
- Maintain up-to-date knowledge of bioinformatics methodologies and stay informed about new technologies and computational tools.
- Communicate findings through scientific publications, presentations, and reports for both academic and non-academic audiences.
Job Requirements:
- PhD in Immunology, Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Systems Biology, or a related field.
- Minimum of two years of relevant experience in omics data analysis.
- Proficient in programming languages such as R and Python, with extensive use of bioinformatics tools and public databases.
- Demonstrated expertise in statistical data analysis and the application of machine learning.
- Skilled in using data visualization tools and software.
- Knowledge of immunology and molecular biology principles.
- Proven publication record in peer-reviewed journals within the bioinformatics field or related areas.
- Exceptional problem-solving skills, capable of working independently and collaboratively.
- Excellent communication skills, both written and oral.
- Advanced programming skills in R and Python.
- Experience with server-based and high-performance computing environments.
- Experience in computational tool development.
- Expertise in managing and analysing large datasets from various omics platforms.
