Job Description
A highly motivated postdoctoral fellow is recruited to conduct computational biology research in the field of spatial biology at the Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS). ISMMS is an international leader in medical and scientific training biomedical research and patient care. At ISMMS worldclass data scientists and clinicians work closely together toward precision medicine. The postdoc will join a leading spatial biology lab directed by Dr. GuoCheng Yuan.
Previous work from this lab has produced widely recognized tools for spatial transcriptomics analysis such as Giotto HMRF and spatialDWLS and contributed to systemslevel understanding of the gene regulatory mechanisms in development and multiple diseases. The postdoctoral fellow will play a critical role in developing computational tools for analyzing harmonizing integrating spatial multiomic datasets across multiple resolutions and further apply those tools to study the role of tissue microenvironment and cellcell communications in human diseases such as cancer and Alzheimers disease. The postdoctoral fellow will have the opportunity to collaborate with experts at ISMMS in both basic and clinical research.
Qualifications. The candidate should hold a PhD degree in a quantitative field. He/she should have strong analytical and programming skills prior experience in analyzing genomic data (broadly defined) and demonstrated productivity through firstauthor peerreviewed publications (including preprints). Experimentally trained candidates with a solid neurobiology background and sufficient statistical/programming skills are also encouraged to apply. Knowledge in spatial biology is desirable but not required. The candidate is expected to work well both independently and collaboratively.
To apply please send a cover letter CV and the contact information of at least two references by email to Dr. GuoCheng Yuan .
