新加坡基因研究所招聘干细胞和再生博士后

The Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) is an institute of the Agency for Science,
Technology and Research (A*STAR). It has a global vision that seeks to use genomic
sciences to improve public health and public prosperity. Established in 2001 as a centre
for genomic discovery, the GIS will pursue the integration of technology, genetics and
biology towards the goal of individualized medicine.

The key research areas at the GIS include Human Genetics, Infectious Diseases,
Cancer Therapeutics and Stratified Oncology, Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology,
Cancer Stem Cell Biology, Genomic Technologies, Computational and Systems
Biology, and Translational Technologies.

We are seeking a highly motivated and independent postdoctoral fellow in the area of
RNA genomics to study how RNA structures impact RNA function in the cell.
How an RNA folds into its secondary and tertiary structure is crucial for its function.
While traditionally RNA structures are studied in a low throughput manner, recent
advances in high throughput sequencing has enabled the simultaneous determination
of thousands of RNA secondary structures in solution. This greatly expands our ability
to study RNA structural organization in the cell and how this organization impacts gene
regulation.Being one of the first people to develop high throughput RNA structure
probing, we are interested in utilizing and extending existing high throughput
approaches to understand how RNAs function in microbial and mammalian systems
(Kertesz et al., 2010; Wan et al., 2011; Wan et al., 2012; Wan et al., 2014).

Requirements:
The successful candidate should have a proven academic track record and interest in
interdisciplinary research. He/she should have a Ph.D in molecular and cellular biology,
biochemistry, genetics or related field and have rich experience in RNA biology, cell
biology and genomics. The postdoc will have opportunities to interact closely with
bioinformaticians and other research groups in the Genome Institute of Singapore. Interested candidates should submit a detailed CV to Dr. Yue Wan (wany@gis.astar.
edu.sg) and a research statement of why you are interested in joining us.
Shortlisted candidates will be required to submit three reference letters.
