Bioinformatics postdoc position open in Singapore

[mh.tan]

My laboratory has an opening for a postdoctoral position in bioinformatics. The postdoc will be involved in the computational analysis of high throughput sequencing datasets generated primarily on the Illumina platform. These datasets can arise from RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, bisulfite sequencing, PARS, RIP-seq, or targeted sequencing experiments. We will also be performing CRISPR-based screens, where careful statistical analysis of the results is required. In addition, the postdoc will have some flexibility in defining his/her own project(s), as long as they are within our interests of systems and synthetic biology (please see www.mhtanlab.com for more details).

The successful candidate should have a PhD in bioinformatics, computer science, biostatistics, or have an extensive knowledge of Unix, R, Perl, and Python. Ideally, the candidate has past experience analyzing Illumina sequencing data. In addition, all postdoctoral candidates should have at least one first-author publication in a reputed journal and have demonstrated the ability to work well in a team. We also expect our lab members to be ambitious, self-motivated, and dedicated.

Interested candidates should submit a detailed CV to me (mh.tan at ntu.edu.sg) and a statement of why you are interested in joining our laboratory. Shortlisted candidates will be required to submit three reference letters at a later date.
