The focus of this position is to develop computational biology and bioinformatics programs to analyze high-throughput data set generated from next generation sequencing including RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq, single- cell sequencing, Pac Bio Iso-seq, and CAGE-seq data among others. The candidate will have opportunity to work or participate on multiple funded genomics projects: “High throughput characterization of gene transcript variants by full-length single-molecule sequencing to improve farm animal genome annotation” “Functional annotation and validation of regulatory elements in the chicken genome” “Epigenetic control of preimplantation development”. There will be great opportunities to collaborate and/or interact with bioinformatic scientists at the UC Davis Genome Center and bioinformatic institutes across the world. Candidates should have some background in two or more of the following areas: bioinformatics, biological system modeling, genomics, biology and statistics. The ideal candidate should have demonstrated ability to: 1) Perform data analyses using next generation sequencing data; 2) Familiarity with biological concepts of gene transcription, gene regulation, and protein translation; 3) Familiarity with bioinformatic tools and concepts. The candidate should be exposed or have knowledge in programming language, R, Perl and C++, SQL and Java. Candidates with PhD or Masters in Bioinformatics/biostatistics, Computational Biology, Genomics, and Molecular Genetics/Microbiology fields are highly desired. This position requires strong analytic, organizational, written, and verbal communications skills. The candidate must be an innovator and self-starter, and work equally well in interdisciplinary teams and independently. Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience and educational background. Interested candidates please email your application (including cover letter and curriculum vitae with contact information of three references) or inquiries to: Dr. Huaijun Zhou at ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) or Dr. Pablo Ross at [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. Interested applicants attending the PAG meeting can email and request a meeting with them during the PAG meeting. The University of California, Davis, is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer with a strong institutional commitment to the development of a climate that supports equality of opportunity and respect for differences. **************** Huaijun Zhou, Professor National Poultry Genome Coordinator, USDA, Chair, Immunology Graduate Group 2247 Meyer Hall, One Shields Ave Department of Animal Science, University of California, Davis Davis, CA 95616 Tel: 530-574-6723 http://animalscience.ucdavis.edu/faculty/Zhou/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -o NRSP8 National Animal Genome Research Program - Supported by USDA/NIFA -o https://www.animalgenome.org | Helpdesk: [email protected] -o Unsubscribe: email "unsubscribe" to: [email protected] ------------------------------------------ The Carpentries: discuss Permalink: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/T5f0b47ab04ae11a8-Mcef89e4a0fc71aba3e401fd1 Delivery options: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/subscription
