The Department of Developmental Biology at Washington University School of Medicine invites applications for a Biomedical Informatics Assistant. The Department of Developmental Biology is a dynamic research community, with interests spanning multiple model organisms and disease paradigms.

 

We are seeking an outstanding applicant to join at the level of Biomedical Informatics Assistant to provide bioinformatics expertise and develop data analysis pipelines. The applicant is expected to have a B.A./B.S. or M.S. in a relevant area, including, but not limited to, computer science, statistics, and biology. Knowledge of developmental biology and/or regenerative medicine would be a plus. The successful candidate will report to the head of the Bioinformatics Research Core (http://brc.wustl.edu/) and assist on fundamental next generation sequencing analysis (ChIP-seq, RNA-seq, genome/exome sequencing), utilizing state of the art bioinformatics tools. Additional duties include the development of pipelines and novel analysis software. Proficiency with statistics and common scripting languages and analysis tools (e.g., Perl, R, and/or Python) is expected. In addition, the candidate should have excellent writing, communication and interpersonal skills. This is an excellent opportunity to gain additional experience with biomedical data analysis, interact with multiple research paradigms, and author scientific publications.
