Research: We develop novel computational methods and pipelines for analyzing large-scale high throughput data to understand noncoding RNA epigenomics in genetics and disease toward advancing precision medicine. Please see more in our group website: http://chanzhoulab.org/ Join our team! We are looking for creative and passionate people including: · Postdoctoral Associate · Graduate students · Visiting PhD students/Scholar We are computational biologists and bioinformatics scientists. Aim to understand genomics, epigenomics, noncoding RNAs and gene regulation from basic sciences towards precision medicine of human disease through computational and big data-driven approaches. We entail the development of new computational algorithms, statistical/quantitative methods, and combining cutting-edge bioinformatics technologies to process various types/platforms of sequencing data (including second and third generation sequencing and single cell sequencing data) to make biomedical discoveries. The lab member will benefit from collaboration with world-class biologists and physicians from UMass and Harvard medical area, MIT and other prestigious institutes. To ensure the success of career development of our lab member, Dr. Zhou will tailor Lab member’ trainings to meet the career goals of individual lab member. Pls email Chan Zhou : chan DOT zhou AT umassmed.edu to learn more Postdoctoral Associate: Please email Chan with your cover letter (including research interests) and CV (including a list of publication, computational skills, and a list of at least 3 referee). REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS: - Ph.D in computational biology, bioinformatics, computer science, applied mathematics, statistics, biophysics, engineering, biological sciences or related field. Ph.D candidates anticipating thesis defense are encouraged to apply for hire after completion of Ph.D.
