Job Description

Description: We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join the Computational Genetics and Genomics (CGG) group based in the Center for Human Genetics Research (CHGR) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The general interest of the CGG group is to understand genetic and genomic characteristics of human diseases through cutting-edge high-throughput sequencing technologies. The successful candidate is expected to work on next-generation sequencing data for disease related genomics studies, and to develop statistical and computational methods for analyzing genomic mutations. Projects include cancer genomics with a goal to identify genomic aberrations associated with the disease outcome.

The CHGR provides an excellent environment and resources for genetic and genomic studies. We have access to a campus-wide computing cluster with nearly 5000 cores for data storage and processing. Successful applicants will have great opportunities to collaborate locally and nationally with a multidisciplinary research team. Vanderbilt University Medical Center offers competitive salaries that are commensurate with experience. For more information please visit http://chgr.mc.vanderbilt.edu/.

Qualifications
Applicants with a doctoral degree in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Biostatistics, or other disciplines with strong quantitative backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Programming experience in scripting languages such as Perl/Python on Unix/Linux systems is required. Familiarity with C/C++ or Java is a strong plus.
