The Hospital for Sick Children -
Position Description
The Research Associate (Genomicist, Genome analyst, Research Genetic counsellor) will play a key role in the design, planning, and implementation of the Ted Rogers Cardiac Genome Research Clinic (a unique collaboration with SickKids, University Health Network, and the University of Toronto). The Research Associate will liaise with The Centre for Applied Genomics (TCAG) and internal and external project stakeholders to ensure the project aligns to achieve the targeted outcomes.
The primary responsibility for this role will be to support the development, implementation and maintenance of the analysis pipeline of the cardiac genomic sequencing data. This involves working closely with a team of research genome scientists from TCAG, the Labatt Family Heart Centre, the Centre for Genetic Medicine, bioinformaticians and clinicians to analyze and interpret genetic and phenotype data from a diverse population with cardiac disease.
As this area of cardiac genetic analysis is rapidly developing, the Research Associate will be responsible for keeping abreast of new developments in genomic analysis as it applies to cardiology and incorporating advances in the field into clinical service.
