A Genomics Fellowship is available at Boston Children’s Hospital. The Fellowship is a one-year program that allows for the development of professional career skills, on-going technical and workplace learning and an opportunity to apply subject matter expertise to new genomics and health technologies, scholarship, creative writing, etc.
Reporting to the Bioinformatics and Genomics Lead, embedded within a technical department, fellowships are full time paid appointments with health benefits. The fellowship will start in September or October and include paid holidays and vacation days.
In the role, the Fellow will be working closely with researchers and primary investigators in genomics laboratories across Boston Children’s Hospital. The Fellow will participate in the development and implementation of a program to sequence Boston Children’s Hospital patients over the next year. The Fellow will engage with the research community and contribute to patient diagnoses through Boston Children’s Hospital’s centralized genomics repository that enables the real-time analysis, storage and management of genomic data. The Fellow will be involved with project management and implementation, coordination and connecting the genomics repository with other internal and external databases and dashboards (coding). The fellow may also be involved in the organization of workshops.
