Job Description A post-doctoral research position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Kakajan Komurov in the Division of Experimental Hematology and Cancer Biology at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC). CCHMC is a leading pediatric research center that is associated with the University of Cincinnati.
Postdoctoral position in Computational Biology
Postdoctoral position in Computational Biology
Komurov lab focuses on computational systems biology. Our main goal is to understand dynamic organizational principles in intracellular molecular networks and their specific alterations that contribute to disease phenotypes. To this end, we develop and use advanced computational methodology to aid in biological network exploration and analyses within the context of data from large-scale genomics (functional and structural) and proteomics experiments. The position entails research on development of network models and computational methods to efficiently integrate multiple genomics datasets to query the network regulatory structure underlying the studied phenotype. Prior experience in R or Matlab is a must, knowledge of the Java programming language is not required, but is a plus. We are interested in candidates with backgrounds in quantitative sciences who are looking to transition into biology, or those with a background in biology with a strong interest and expertise in computational analyses.
To apply, please send your CV with contacts of references and a 1-2 page cover letter summarizing past research accomplishments and future research interests. In addition, please apply for this position by submitting an on-line application for Requisition 53344 at: http://www.cincinnatichildrens.org/careers/apply/default.htm.
