The Tulane Center for Biomedical Informatics and Genomics (CBG) at the Tulane University School of Medicine (SOM) is seeking outstanding applicants for multiple researchtrack assistant/associate/full professor positions in the various omics bioinformatics health informatics or translational research in complex diseases.
The Tulane CBG is composed of a multidisciplinary team of longtime collaborating investigators with strong complementing experience and expertise in genomics functional genomics (transcriptomics and proteomics) epigenomics molecular genetics biostatistics statistical genetics bioinformatics computational biology biomedical imaging informatics brain imaging data science clinic and genetic epidemiology metagenomics metabolomics and recently single cell sequencing and spatial profiling based omics. We are most interested in generating analyzing and integrating big data of various omics to link with environmental factors to elucidate how DNA variants affect gene expression/regulation and protein expression/modification in the form of functional networks/modules/pathways and how the knowledge gained on these molecular mechanisms in humans would translate into better prediction/intervention/precision medicine and drug development. The center has been funded by NIH SCOR (Specialized Center of Research P50AR055081 grant U19 program of Complex Integrated MultiComponent Projects in Aging Research (U19AG055373 and multiple NIH R01 and NSF grants. Tulane SOM and School of Public Health and Tropic Medicine have several distinct research groups engaged in various omics and clinical/epidemiological studies that would offer a wide range of opportunity for collaboration. Tulane University is ranked #44 out of 443 National Universities on US News Report providing a great environment for research and collaboration. Tulane SOM has recently developed a track of PhD and MSc graduate programs in Biomedical Informatics that would provide teaching and mentoring opportunities for graduate students. We offer a supportive and collaborative environment for faculty to develop their own research projects and to participate in various funded studies or grant applications at Tulane CBG and other research entities at Tulane University.
Applicants must have a PhD MD or equivalent doctoral degree and appropriate research experience in genomics biostatistics medical/health informatics bioinformatics computational biology molecular genetics genetic epidemiology or translational medicine. Candidates are expected to develop or have an established track record of sustained extramural funding.
Ability and willingness to collaborate with other faculty members in Tulane CBG and Tulane University School of Medicine is required.
