The labs of Junhyong Kim and Jim Eberwine have multiple open postdoctoral positions in computational biology, experimental genomics, or combination of both. We are jointly pursuing multiple single cell biology projects including: characterization of single cells from humans, functional identification of cell phenotypes, and RNA biology of individual cells. We are also actively developing novel technologies including multiplex RNA manipulations, new machine learning methods, and models of system function. We especially value a broad interdisciplinary outlook, an ability to work well with others and scientific creativity.
The experimental biology position involves a new NIDDK project that aims to develop new single cell technologies that will help characterize human kidney cells for regenerative medicine. The fellow will have the opportunity for both technology development and translational research in transplant sciences.
The computational biology positions require expertise in programming, familiarity with NGS tools, and statistical analysis; expertise in machine learning and high-dimensional data is desirable.
Please send to Junh...@sas.upenn.edu or Eber...@upenn.edu: (1) cover letter describing interest in the position and future research interests (not to exceed one page); (2) CV; (3) names and contact information for three references.
The
Wu lab
(biofluidics.bee.cornell.edu) in the
department of Biological and Environmental Engineering at
Cornell University invites
a postdoctoral
applicant
in
the
direction of micro/nano fluidics and single cell analysis. The
primary aim of
the research is to come up with governing principles for
cell-environment
interactions,
and use this knowledge to solve contemporary problems in
environment. The particular problem of interest is the role of
environmental cues
in the
growth
and migration of cyanobacteria for smart management of algal
blooms. This is a collaborative work with Cornell
microbiology, ecology and evolutionary
biology
department. The
candidate will benefit from extensive
resources on Cornell campus, including the Atkinson Center for
a Sustainable
Future,
Nanobiotechnology Center, and the Cornell Nanoscale Science & Technology Facility.
Applicants
with prior
experiences in micro/nano fabrication, and/or cell biology are particularly encouraged
to apply.
If
you
are interested, please send in a copy of your cv along with
names of three
references to Dr. Mingming Wu at mw...@cornell.edu.
This position is open
until it is filled.
