The blending of research with patient care is at the heart of everything we do. The institution is a comprehensive cancer center whose purposes are the treatment and control of cancer, the advancement of biomedical knowledge through laboratory and clinical research, and the training of scientists, physicians and other health care workers.
We are seeking a highly motivated candidate, interested in statistical and computational cancer genomics, for a position as a postdoctoral fellow. This position will focus on developing statistical models and computational methods for the integration of data from multi-modal tumor-profiling (targeted, whole-exome, wholegenome sequencing, DNA methylation, RNA-seq, spatial transcriptomics), and working with a highly interdisciplinary group of investigators toward understanding cancer biology and disease progression.
The ideal candidate should have:
• PhD degree in biostatistics, statistics, bioinformatics, or a related field
• experience in NGS sequencing data analysis including whole-exomes and
whole-genomes
• Solid methodological training in statistics, be comfortable working with large
data sets, proficient in at least one of the statistical programming languages
