The postdoctoral appointee must possess a Ph.D. or equivalent degree and demonstrate a strong ability to apply scientific judgment daily. They will critically evaluate information from experimental data, literature, and oral communications to make informed decisions about the next steps toward research progress.
Preferred Qualifications:
· Recent Ph.D. Degree: Awarded within the last five years.
· Genomic Data Analysis or Single-Molecule Biophysics: Expertise in one or both areas are highly preferred.
· CRISPR/Cas9 or Epigenetics: Experience in these fields will be considered a significant advantage.
Minimum Experience / Education:
The postdoctoral appointee must have earned a Ph.D. degree within the past five years from an accredited university in one of the following fields: Bioinformatics, Biophysics, Biochemistry, Chemical Biology, Molecular Genetics, or Cell and Molecular Biology.
Preferred Education Skills and Experience:
Candidates will be given priority consideration if they possess some of the following training and experience:
· Genomic data analysis: Proficiency in analyzing Hi-C, Micro-C, CUT&RUN, CUT&Tag, and RNA-seq data.
· Single-molecule biophysics: Experience in live-cell single-molecule fluorescence microscopy.
· CRISPR/Cas9: Expertise in CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing techniques.
· Epigenetics: Knowledge of epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and chromatin structure.
