Description:

Cornell University has an immediate opening for a postdoctoral position in bioinformatics and computational biology. We are looking for a highly motivated and talented computational biologist to join our research team. We use ribosome profiling coupled with deep-sequencing to analyze genome-wide translation control in mammalian cells (Science, 324:218, 2009; Nature, 466:835, 2010). This is an excellent opportunity for computational biologist to collaborate with wet bench scientists and participate in second generation sequencing experiments.

The ideal candidate must have a Ph.D. and direct experience in programming and high-throughput analysis of biological data (such as microarrays and deep sequencing). The candidate is expected to be able to work independently to develop new algorithm to facilitate novel discoveries. Programming language such as PERL or Python is required for this position. Experience with statistic analytic tools, such as R, SAS, SPLUS, and MatLab, is also required. Familiarity with major biological databases, such as NCBI, ENSEML, is highly desirable. Molecular biology background is a strong plus.
