Description & Requirement Post doc in Bioinformatics by MOMA
Post-doctoral position in cancer genomics at Aarhus University, Denmark
A post-doctoral position (three years) is available in the bioinformatics group at the Department of Molecular Medicine (MOMA), Aarhus University Hospital, Skejby, Denmark, to study the function of ncRNAs in cancer and the potential clinical applications. The successful applicant will both be responsible for individual projects and participate in large collaborations involving Danish biotech companies. Overall, the research will focus on the analysis of large collections of clinical samples from several types of cancer tumors, which will be characterized using various functional genomics techniques, including NGS and ncRNA micro-array expression profiling. The aim is to identify and characterize ncRNAs that are dys-regulated in cancer using integrated bioinformatical analysis of these data sets.
The ideal applicant holds a Ph.D. degree in bioinformatics or a related discipline with relevant publications in genomics. Demonstrated experience in large-scale data analysis using statistical or machine-learning methods is required. Experience with analysis of micro-array data or next generation sequencing data is highly desirable.
The Department of Molecular Medicine offers a stimulating interdisciplinary research environment with strong clinical ties, focusing on translational cancer research. The department has long experience with cancer genomics and houses a next generation sequencing facility (see http://www.mdl.dk/ for further information). The bioinformatics group, headed by associate professor Jakob Skou Pedersen, is devoted to the study of non-coding RNAs in gene-regulation and cancer development. The work includes both the development of sound statistical methods and their application in genomics data analysis.
"Currently, the monthly postdoc salary begins around 4800 € including supplements and pension. Non-Danish and Danish applicants may be eligible for tax reductions, if they have not lived in Denmark the last 3 years."
For more information on the position, contact ass. prof. Jakob Skou Pedersen, phone: +45 89492 9412.
