Research Data Analyst
Johns Hopkins University
General Summary/Purpose
The Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins University is recruiting an individual to lead analyses on epigenomics analyses such as (ChIP-seq, ATAC-seq and RNA-seq) and single cell analyses in cancer models. This person will be active in the data pre-processing stages as well as analysis and interpretation of results.
The Toska lab integrates biochemistry, cell signaling, genomics and epigenomics at bulk and single cell level to study the fundamental processes by which epigenetic regulators regulate transcription, have the ability to drive tumorigenesis and dictate therapeutic response in breast cancer. The Fertig lab develops time course models of therapeutic resistance and performs single cell technology development. Her computational methods are used to determine the molecular mechanisms of therapeutic resistance from multi-platform genomics and epigenomics data. The successful candidate will become a fundamental component of this multidisciplinary team with mentorship in both computational and biological processes affecting therapeutic response in cancer.
Eligible candidate will be involved in designing and developing analysis plans to address biological hypotheses in our ChIP-seq/ATAC-seq/RNA-seq and RNA-seq and ATAC-seq at the single level acquired from breast cancer models such as cell lines, organoids, and patients treated with targeted therapies. The candidate will interact daily with other data analysts within the Institute, as well as Genomics experts, and clinicians. This position requires collaboration with clinical and scientific investigators in research/study design, data analysis plans, algorithm development, grant applications, and preparation of presentations and publications. The candidate should work independently and in collaboration with faculty to solve problems posed by the clinical and laboratory investigators along the study design, data generation, collection and management process; interaction with bioinformatic experts, biostatistician program developers, computational scientists, health informatic experts as well as postdoc fellows from the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center and the Bloomberg School of Public Health on our epigenomic data mining initiatives with the goal of translating these findings into therapeutic modalities for cancer patients. The applicant may share efforts between 1-3 labs.

Classified Title: Research Data Analyst
The successful candidate(s) for this position will be subject to a pre-employment background check.
If you are interested in applying for employment with The Johns Hopkins University and require special assistance or accommodation during any part of the pre-employment process, please contact the HR Business Services Office at jhurecruitment@jhu.edu. For TTY users, call via Maryland Relay or dial 711.
The following additional provisions may apply depending on which campus you will work. Your recruiter will advise accordingly.
During the Influenza ("the flu") season, as a condition of employment, The Johns Hopkins Institutions require all employees who provide ongoing services to patients or work in patient care or clinical care areas to have an annual influenza vaccination or possess an approved medical or religious exception. Failure to meet this requirement may result in termination of employment.
The pre-employment physical for positions in clinical areas, laboratories, working with research subjects, or involving community contact requires documentation of immune status against Rubella (German measles), Rubeola (Measles), Mumps, Varicella (chickenpox), Hepatitis B and documentation of having received the Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis) vaccination. This may include documentation of having two (2) MMR vaccines; two (2) Varicella vaccines; or antibody status to these diseases from laboratory testing. Blood tests for immunities to these diseases are ordinarily included in the pre-employment physical exam except for those employees who provide results of blood tests or immunization documentation from their own health care providers. Any vaccinations required for these diseases will be given at no cost in our Occupational Health office.
