Full Job Description

Department

BSD MED - Genetic Medicine - Im Research Staff

About the Department

The Section of Genetic Medicine shape the future of personalized medicine with successful research programs focused on the quantitative genetic and genomic science. The Section provides extremely valuable collaborations with investigators in the Department of Medicine who are seeking to develop new and more powerful ways to identify genetic risk factors for common, complex disorders with almost immediate clinical application.

The Section of Genetic Medicine conducts impactful investigations focused on quantitative genetics, systems biology and genomics, bioinformatics and computational biology as well as through extensive collaborations of the faculty throughout the Department of Medicine, Biological Sciences Division and the University of Chicago.

Job Summary

We are seeking a lifelong learner interested in developing statistical and computational tools to sift through large amounts of data to make discoveries that can improve human health. The Computational Biologist will contribute to the development and application of statistical and computational tools across NIH-funded projects, integrating large-scale GWAS with metabolomics data to uncover mechanisms underlying complex diseases and developing polygenic risk scores that transfer genetic signals across human populations and model organisms to study addiction-related traits, COPD, type 2 diabetes, and other common diseases.

Responsibilities

Analyze large-scale genomic datasets including RNA-seq, whole genome sequence, and single-cell data.
Develop and apply statistical and computational methods to extract biological insights from high-dimensional data.
Develop and train deep learning models to improve upon traditional statistical methods in genomics.
Collaborate with disease and genomics experts to address pressing biomedical research questions.
Write and contribute to scientific publications and present findings at lab and consortium meetings.
Help train and mentor students in the lab.
Applies research principles and relevant subject matter knowledge relevant to administer a research project. With a moderate level of direction, manages lab and/or research-related duties and tasks. Helps develop, design and conduct research projects according to plan.
