Description

The J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) is a not-for-profit research institute dedicated to the advancement of the science of genomics is seeking a Post-Doctoral Fellow. Advances in sequencing have produced an abundant amount of data; our goal is to make this data meaningful to human health. We are excited to announce a Post-Doctoral Fellow position for the Human Genomic Medicine group who will report to Dr. Pauline Ng. The fellow’s main responsibility will be to develop novel computational methods to analyze human genetic variation in genes and extend the SIFT algorithm, which predicts the functional impact of protein coding changes. The fellow will be responsible for development of web-based computational tools to enable the large genome-wide scale analysis of genetic changes. The fellow will also be involved in analyzing data from whole genome sequencing projects. Position is available immediately and funding will be provided for four years.

Successful candidates will have a PhD or MD in a relevant scientific discipline plus a strong background in programming (Perl, C/C++, Unix). Candidates will also have experience in computational genomics (protein and DNA sequence analysis).

JCVI offers an excellent working environment and a competitive benefits package. For more information and to apply to this position, please visit our website at www.jcvi.org Equal Opportunity Employer M/F/D/V.
