Bioinformatics Postdoctoral Research Scientist at Center for Comprehensive Informatics, Emory University

The Emory University Center for Comprehensive Informatics is seeking applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist position in Bioinformatics.

Qualifications
The candidate should have a PhD or MD/PhD degree with strong genetics or molecular biology as well as computer science or bioinformatics background.

The position will perform integrative data analysis of multiple types of high-throughput genomic and expression data and develop necessary associated software tools. Projects will focus on development of tools for integration of microarray, microRNA, genetic copy number, CpG methylation, genome sequence, histopathology, and patient outcome data. Opportunities for integration of additional public datasets will also be available.The Emory Center for Comprehensive Informatics implements a broad research and development agenda in biomedical informatics, translational research informatics, grid computing, high performance computing and imaging informatics. The Center develops open source, innovative software systems, tools and applications through synthesis of advanced computer science in high performance and grid computing, biomedical informatics and translational research informatics. Over the next few years, the Center’s principal biomedical informatics research objective will be to develop principles, techniques and tools that can be used by biomedical researchers to assemble a coherent biomedical picture by integrating information from multiple complementary data sources. Its approach is to develop analysis techniques and knowledge management systems so that investigators can explore different ways of synthesizing information from multiple disparate data sources, allowing researchers to generate and test biologically meaningful hypotheses. Interested candidates should send cover letter, Curriculum Vitae, and references to: careers.cci@emory.edu
