Centre for Molecular Medicine Norway (NCMM), University of Oslo -

The Computational Biology & Gene Regulation group led by Anthony Mathelier at the NCMM, a part of the Nordic EMBL Partnership for Molecular Medicine, is seeking an ambitious and highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow or Researcher for a two-year position, starting as soon as possible in 2024. The selected candidate will play a pivotal role in a collaborative project spanning internationally renowned groups, namely those of Drs. Anshul Kundaje at Stanford University, USA, Wyeth Wasserman at the University of British Columbia, Canada, and Anthony Mathelier, NCMM, Norway. The position will be based in Norway. More information about the group can be found at https://mathelierlab.com/.

Join us to not only advance your career but also contribute to meaningful scientific discoveries and resources in the world of computational biology and gene regulation.

Position Description

The selected candidate will contribute to a cutting-edge project aimed at enhancing and expanding computational resources to decipher transcription factor (TF) – DNA interactions. The focus will be on the enhancement of the JASPAR (https://jaspar.elixir.no) and UniBind (https://unibind.uio.no)  databases, which are officially recognized by ELIXIR Norway as Norwegian bioinformatics services. Specifically, the candidate will utilize advanced deep learning techniques to provide refined models and data crucial for the analysis of disease mutations affecting gene expression.

The candidate can refer to the following publications: https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkac1143https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-021-07760-6https://doi.org/10.1038/s41588-021-00782-6https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.12.20.520743https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.1704.02685https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.1811.00416.

Postdoctoral

Washington University in St Louis, MO, USA -

Liquid biopsy technology development for early and non-invasive diagnosis of brain tumors

A postdoctoral position with a bioinformatics focus is available in the Molecular Oncology Laboratory of Dr. Dimitrios Mathios, MD, at The Brain Tumor Center of Washington University School of Medicine. Our laboratory aims to harness the expansive knowledge in brain cancer genomics, cancer epigenomics and immunogenomics to design liquid biopsy assays that will help us diagnose patients with brain tumors without the need for invasive surgeries. The goal of the lab is to take the liquid biopsy technologies developed in the lab and translate them to tests that can be used to guide patient care.

Working Conditions

This position works in a laboratory environment with potential exposure to biological and chemical hazards. The individual must be physically able to wear protective equipment and to provide standard care to research animals.

Salary Range

Base pay is commensurate with experience.

Applicant Special Instructions

Interested candidates should send a cover letter, their C.V. and a list of two or three references to mathios@wustl.edu.
