The integration of computational and experimental strategies is central to our exploration of chromatin structure and gene expression in relation to human health.
Current Projects- Statistical modeling and machine learning approaches for predicting transcriptional regulation from diverse omics datasets.
- Algorithm development for analyzing single-cell epigenomic and spatial multi-omics data.
- Investigating transcriptional regulation and chromatin biology through both computational and experimental lenses.
- Exploring the roles of epigenetics and transcriptional mechanisms in T-cell immunity and oncogenesis.
Our laboratory is well-supported by various funding agencies, providing an enriching environment for professional growth. Each research scientist will receive tailored training in both research methodologies and career development, with ample opportunities for independent and collaborative projects.
Located within a prestigious institution, the laboratory fosters strong partnerships with other research groups nationwide, enhancing the collaborative experience.
Qualifications- A Ph.D. or equivalent degree in biological or biomedical sciences is required.
- Experience in experimental cellular and molecular biology is essential.
- Strong communication and teamwork skills are necessary.
- A minimum of one peer-reviewed publication as a lead author is required.
- Familiarity with cell culture and high-throughput genomic techniques, including RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and CRISPR, is advantageous.
- A commitment to collaborative research and an understanding of the interplay between computational and experimental work is preferred.
Interested candidates are encouraged to submit their applications, including a CV, cover letter, and contact information for three references. Please ensure all required documents are included for full consideration.
