Description:

The Telomeres and Telomerase group at the Molecular Oncology Programme is seeking to recruit a scientist with extensive bioinformatics experience in ChIP-seq analysis and high throughput sequencing to fill a bioinformatician position to develop and apply computational methods for studies on telomere biology and regulation. Using data obtained with next generation sequencing technologies (ChIP-seq and RNA-seq), the successful candidate will perform analyses of genome-wide binding sites for telomere factors and their regulation during cancer and aging and analyses of non-coding telomere associated RNAs or TERRA.

Job description:

The Biomedical Genomics Group (http://bg.upf.edu) is settled in the Research Unit on Biomedical Informatics (GRIB) (http://grib.imim.es), a joint unit of the IMIM-Hospital del Mar and the University Pompeu Fabra, which is located at the PRBB, Barcelona. The main line of research in our group is the integration of genomic data for the study of genetic diseases, including hereditary diseases and cancer.
This position is immediately available for enthusiastic and highly motivated people wanting to be part of Biomedical Genomics Group and work in a multidisciplinary project related to personalized medicine.
