Description & Requirements

The Schmidt Centers mission is to create the theoretical computational and algorithmic paradigms that will enable us to understand the programs of life and how they connect across scales from proteins to cells to tissues and organisms. The Schmidt Center is located within the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard - a world-leading non-profit research organization dedicated to better understanding the roots of disease and narrowing the gap between new biological insights and impact for patients in an interdisciplinary manner.
