We are currently searching for a Regulatory Bioinformatics Scientist. The position will independently provide bioinformatics and genomics project support to our federal client. This is a full-time opportunity with remote work location.

• Research and review literature to retrieve targeted clinical or scientific information, including novel statistical methods, from publicly available resources.
• Participate in continuous quality improvement of bioinformatic and statistical processes and will work collaboratively with other lab staffs to implement changes and training.
• Analysis and interpretation of high-throughput genomic, transcriptomic and/or proteomic data.
• Work with the laboratory lead to design, develop and validate robust workflows, as well as custom scripts, to support the analysis of high-throughput data.
• Work with the laboratory lead to develop network/systems biology approaches, including analysis of regulatory networks, integrative analysis to combine evidence from multiple data modalities.
• Work with laboratory lead to interpret omics data and communicate results.
• Mining proprietary and publicly available biological data to generate novel hypotheses or insights.
• Present analysis results, in a clear and concise manner, to scientific audiences.
• Collaborate with experimentalists and computational biologists to develop new computational tools to answer research questions of interest.
• Identify new tools and resources for reaching biologically meaningful conclusions.
• Serve as bioinformatics expert and coordinate with teams of biologists to conduct experimental queries and/or perform portions of studies using complex procedures and techniques common to modern bioinformatics.
• Provide broad-based programming and analytic support for a wide variety of bioinformatic and research projects.
• Work with staff on planning of experiments, and data analysis for internal and collaborative projects; use bioinformatics expertise to advise and help bench scientists on experimental design and troubleshooting.
• Attend scientific and programming meetings; take and compile comprehensive notes; organize and edit content of meeting reports.
• Prepare scientific reports, presentations, manuscripts and progress reports; assemble data to prepare tables, graphs, and slides; conduct scientific and program related information searches and report results.
• Develop and optimize programs and scripts that facilitate organization, integration, and data mining of large data sets; integrate these models into a framework of best practices.

What You Will Need:

• PhD in Molecular Biology, bioinformatics, biostatistics, or related field.
• Strong technical, scientific, and analytical knowledge of molecular biology methods including RT-PCR/PCR and/or DNA/RNA sequencing.
